Given numbers are 1486,5296

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

The LCM of 1486,5296 is 3934928.

Find LCM of 1486,5296 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 743 x 2648 = 3934928

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 1486,5296 is 3934928.

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.

1486 x 5296 = 7869856

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.

1486 : 1, 2, 743, 1486

5296 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 331, 662, 1324, 2648, 5296

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 1486,5296, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

1486:2x 743

5296:2x 2x 2x 2x 331

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 = 7869856/(2x1)

LCM = 7869856/2

LCM = 3934928

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 1486,5296 is 3934928.

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

• LCM of 4641, 8977
