Given numbers are 1838,8978

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

The LCM of 1838,8978 is 8250782.

Find LCM of 1838,8978 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 919 x 4489 = 8250782

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 1838,8978 is 8250782.

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.

1838 x 8978 = 16501564

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.

1838 : 1, 2, 919, 1838

8978 : 1, 2, 67, 134, 4489, 8978

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 1838,8978, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

1838:2x 919

8978:2x 67x 67

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 = 16501564/(2x1)

LCM = 16501564/2

LCM = 8250782

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 1838,8978 is 8250782.
