Given numbers are 1998,8859

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

The LCM of 1998,8859 is 5900094.

Find LCM of 1998,8859 with Prime Factorization

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

3 x 666 x 2953 = 5900094

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 1998,8859 is 5900094.

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.

1998 x 8859 = 17700282

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.

1998 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 27, 37, 54, 74, 111, 222, 333, 666, 999, 1998

8859 : 1, 3, 2953, 8859

3 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 1998,8859, is 3.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

1998:2x 3x 3x 3x 37

8859:3x 2953

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 = 17700282/(3x1)

LCM = 17700282/3

LCM = 5900094

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 1998,8859 is 5900094.

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

• LCM of 6023, 5933
• LCM of 9631, 8141
