Given numbers are 1586,8996

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

The LCM of 1586,8996 is 548756.

Find LCM of 1586,8996 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 13 x 61 x 346 = 548756

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 1586,8996 is 548756.

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.

1586 x 8996 = 14267656

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.

1586 : 1, 2, 13, 26, 61, 122, 793, 1586

8996 : 1, 2, 4, 13, 26, 52, 173, 346, 692, 2249, 4498, 8996

26 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 1586,8996, is 26.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

1586:2x 13x 61

8996:2x 2x 13x 173

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 = 14267656/(26x1)

LCM = 14267656/26

LCM = 548756

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 1586,8996 is 548756.

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

• LCM of 2767, 3439
