Given numbers are 2994,3198

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

The LCM of 2994,3198 is 1595802.

Find LCM of 2994,3198 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3 x 499 x 533 = 1595802

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 2994,3198 is 1595802.

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.

2994 x 3198 = 9574812

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.

2994 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 499, 998, 1497, 2994

3198 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 13, 26, 39, 41, 78, 82, 123, 246, 533, 1066, 1599, 3198

6 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 2994,3198, is 6.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

2994:2x 3x 499

3198:2x 3x 13x 41

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 = 9574812/(6x1)

LCM = 9574812/6

LCM = 1595802

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 2994,3198 is 1595802.

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

• LCM of 1174, 5183
