Given numbers are 2078,5046

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

The LCM of 2078,5046 is 5242794.

Find LCM of 2078,5046 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 1039 x 2523 = 5242794

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 2078,5046 is 5242794.

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.

2078 x 5046 = 10485588

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.

2078 : 1, 2, 1039, 2078

5046 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 29, 58, 87, 174, 841, 1682, 2523, 5046

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 2078,5046, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

2078:2x 1039

5046:2x 3x 29x 29

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 = 10485588/(2x1)

LCM = 10485588/2

LCM = 5242794

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 2078,5046 is 5242794.

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

• LCM of 8926, 5334
• LCM of 2918, 3336
