Given numbers are 1218,3866

The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.

The LCM of 1218,3866 is 2354394.

Find LCM of 1218,3866 with Prime Factorization

Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.

2 x 609 x 1933 = 2354394

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 1218,3866 is 2354394.

LCM formula is LCM(a1, a2, an) = (a1 x a2 x an)/{GCF(a1 x a2 x an) x common factors}

Firstly, we have to find the product of all the numbers.

1218 x 3866 = 4708788

Then, let us find the GCF of these five numbers. To do so, we have to list down the factors for each number and choose the highest factor that is in all of the lists.

1218 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21, 29, 42, 58, 87, 174, 203, 406, 609, 1218

3866 : 1, 2, 1933, 3866

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 1218,3866, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

1218:2x 3x 7x 29

3866:2x 1933

From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.

= 1

Therefore, the value for common factors is 1.

Now that we have all the elements of the formula, we can plug them in to calculate the LCM.

LCM(a1, a2, an) = (a1 x a2 x an)/{GCF(a1 x a2 x an) x common factors}

LCM = 4708788/(2x1)

LCM = 4708788/2

LCM = 2354394

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 1218,3866 is 2354394.

Here are some samples of LCM of two or more Numbers calculations.

• LCM of 5255, 7411
• LCM of 3469, 9484
