Multi-Number Reduction Steps
LCM(12, 18) = (12 × 18) / GCD(12, 18) = 36
LCM(36, 30) = (36 × 30) / GCD(36, 30) = 180

Step-by-Step Examples

Finding LCM of 12, 18, and 30

Finding common denominator for 3 fractions.

Inputs: Integers: 12, 18, 30
Result: LCM = 180

LCM(12, 18) = 36. LCM(36, 30) = (36 × 30) / GCD(36, 30) = 1080 / 6 = 180.
