Continuous division method of 56 and 40

Continuous division method of 56 and 40 is 280

The LCM (Least Common Multiple) is the "lowest common denominator" (LCD) that can be used before fractions can be added, subtracted or compared. The LCM of more than two integers is also well-defined: it is the smallest positive integer that is divisible by each of them.

In arithmetic and number theory, the least common multiple, lowest common multiple, or smallest common multiple of two integers a and b, usually denoted by LCM(a, b). It is the smallest positive integer that is divisible by both a and b.

The Least Common Multiple (LCM) of numbers 56 and 40 is 280.

40/2 = 20/2 = 10/2 = 5/5 = 1

56/2 = 28/2 = 14/2 = 7/7 = 1

2 x 2 x 2 x 5= 40

2 x 2 x 2 x 7 = 56

2 x 2 x 2 = 8, the GCF

2 x 2 x 2 x 5 x 7 = 280, the LCM

sinn is the total amount of students now and m were the students before, you subtract them both (n-m) and divide that by m. then, since to get a percentage from a fraction you have to multiply by 100, your answer should look like this: n-m/m*100
