Given numbers are 2542,4652

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

The LCM of 2542,4652 is 5912692.

Find LCM of 2542,4652 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 1271 x 2326 = 5912692

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 2542,4652 is 5912692.

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.

2542 x 4652 = 11825384

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.

2542 : 1, 2, 31, 41, 62, 82, 1271, 2542

4652 : 1, 2, 4, 1163, 2326, 4652

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 2542,4652, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

2542:2x 31x 41

4652:2x 2x 1163

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 = 11825384/(2x1)

LCM = 11825384/2

LCM = 5912692

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 2542,4652 is 5912692.

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

• LCM of 3189, 3426
