The least common multiple of 160 and 96 is 480.
To find the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of two numbers, you can use the Prime Factorization Method or the Division Method.
Let's use the Prime Factorization Method here.
Step 1: Prime factorize each number:
160 = 2^5 * 5
96 = 2^5 * 3
Step 2: Write down the common and unique prime factors with their highest powers:
2^5 * 3 * 5
Step 3: Multiply the factors together:
2^5 * 3 * 5 = 480
Hence, the LCM of 160 and 96 is 480.
