Given numbers are 2546,4008

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

The LCM of 2546,4008 is 5102184.

Find LCM of 2546,4008 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 1273 x 2004 = 5102184

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 2546,4008 is 5102184.

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.

2546 x 4008 = 10204368

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.

2546 : 1, 2, 19, 38, 67, 134, 1273, 2546

4008 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 167, 334, 501, 668, 1002, 1336, 2004, 4008

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 2546,4008, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

2546:2x 19x 67

4008:2x 2x 2x 3x 167

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 = 10204368/(2x1)

LCM = 10204368/2

LCM = 5102184

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 2546,4008 is 5102184.

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

• LCM of 2016, 5137
