Given numbers are 3146,1682

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

The LCM of 3146,1682 is 2645786.

Find LCM of 3146,1682 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 1573 x 841 = 2645786

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 3146,1682 is 2645786.

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.

3146 x 1682 = 5291572

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.

3146 : 1, 2, 11, 13, 22, 26, 121, 143, 242, 286, 1573, 3146

1682 : 1, 2, 29, 58, 841, 1682

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 3146,1682, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

3146:2x 11x 11x 13

1682:2x 29x 29

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 = 5291572/(2x1)

LCM = 5291572/2

LCM = 2645786

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 3146,1682 is 2645786.

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

• LCM of 2847, 3846
• LCM of 5212, 1648
