How to Find LCM of 63 and 81?

LCM of 63 and 81 can be determined using three methods:

  • Prime Factorisation
  • Division method
  • Listing the multiples

LCM of 63 and 81 Using Prime Factorisation Method

In this method, the numbers can be expressed as the product of prime numbers. Hence 63 and 81 can be expressed as;

63 = 3 × 3 × 7

81 = 3 × 3 × 3 × 3

LCM (63, 81) = 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 7 = 567

LCM of 63 and 81 Using Division Method

In the division method, we divide the numbers 63 and 81 by their prime factors until we get the result as one in the complete row to calculate their LCM. The product of these divisors represents the least common multiple of 63 and 81.

3 63 81
3 21 27
3 7 9
3 7 3
7 7 1
x 1 1

No more further division can be done.

Hence, LCM (63, 81) = 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 7 = 567

Solved Examples 

Q. 1: What is the smallest number that is divisible by both 63 and 81?

Solution: 567 is the smallest number that is divisible by both 63 and 81. 

Q. 2: The GCD and LCM of two numbers are 9 and 567. If one number is 81, calculate the other number.

Solution: Let the other number be q.

We know that;

GCD × LCM = 81 × q

q = (GCD × LCM) / 81

q = (9 × 567) / 81

q = 63

Hence the other number is 63.
