Answer» What is the smallest number that is exactly divided by 108, 180, and 216 This sounds to me like you are looking for the Least Common Multiple (LCM), so I will uses the prime factorization of each number to find the prime factorization of the LCM. 2*2*3*3*3 is the prime factorization of 108 2*2*3*3*5 is the prime factorization of 180 2*2*2*3*3*3 is the prime factorization of 216 LCM = 2*2*2*3*3*3*5= 1080 Therefore,1080 is the smallest number exactly divided by 108, 180 and 216. 1080 is yhe no thar are divided |
