Given numbers are 2486,5722

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

The LCM of 2486,5722 is 7112446.

Find LCM of 2486,5722 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 1243 x 2861 = 7112446

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 2486,5722 is 7112446.

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.

2486 x 5722 = 14224892

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.

2486 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 113, 226, 1243, 2486

5722 : 1, 2, 2861, 5722

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 2486,5722, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

2486:2x 11x 113

5722:2x 2861

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 = 14224892/(2x1)

LCM = 14224892/2

LCM = 7112446

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 2486,5722 is 7112446.
