Given numbers are 1338,8457

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

The LCM of 1338,8457 is 3771822.

Find LCM of 1338,8457 with Prime Factorization

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

3 x 446 x 2819 = 3771822

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 1338,8457 is 3771822.

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.

1338 x 8457 = 11315466

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.

1338 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 223, 446, 669, 1338

8457 : 1, 3, 2819, 8457

3 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 1338,8457, is 3.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

1338:2x 3x 223

8457:3x 2819

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 = 11315466/(3x1)

LCM = 11315466/3

LCM = 3771822

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 1338,8457 is 3771822.
