Given numbers are 2866,6172

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

The LCM of 2866,6172 is 8844476.

Find LCM of 2866,6172 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 1433 x 3086 = 8844476

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 2866,6172 is 8844476.

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.

2866 x 6172 = 17688952

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.

2866 : 1, 2, 1433, 2866

6172 : 1, 2, 4, 1543, 3086, 6172

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 2866,6172, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

2866:2x 1433

6172:2x 2x 1543

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 = 17688952/(2x1)

LCM = 17688952/2

LCM = 8844476

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 2866,6172 is 8844476.
