Find the LCM of 8, 12, 27, 36


A) 36

B) 216

C) 422

D) 432

Correct Answer:
B) 216

Description for Correct answer:
\( \Large \frac{8,12,\ 27,\ 36 }{2} \)

\( \Large \frac{4,\ 6,\ 27,\ 18}{3} \)

\( \Large \frac{4,\ 2,\ 9,\ 6}{3} \)

\( \Large \frac{4,\ 2,\ 3,\ 2}{2} = 2,\ 1,\ 3,\ 1 \)

LCM = \( \Large 2 \times 3 \times 3 \times 2 \times 2 \times 3 = 36 \times 6 = 216 \)
