Given numbers are 2997,4866

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

The LCM of 2997,4866 is 4861134.

Find LCM of 2997,4866 with Prime Factorization

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

3 x 999 x 1622 = 4861134

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 2997,4866 is 4861134.

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.

2997 x 4866 = 14583402

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.

2997 : 1, 3, 9, 27, 37, 81, 111, 333, 999, 2997

4866 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 811, 1622, 2433, 4866

3 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 2997,4866, is 3.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

2997:3x 3x 3x 3x 37

4866:2x 3x 811

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 = 14583402/(3x1)

LCM = 14583402/3

LCM = 4861134

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 2997,4866 is 4861134.

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

• LCM of 9875, 6736
• LCM of 3837, 3892
