Given numbers are 3147,9987

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

The LCM of 3147,9987 is 10476363.

Find LCM of 3147,9987 with Prime Factorization

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

3 x 1049 x 3329 = 10476363

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 3147,9987 is 10476363.

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.

3147 x 9987 = 31429089

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.

3147 : 1, 3, 1049, 3147

9987 : 1, 3, 3329, 9987

3 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 3147,9987, is 3.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

3147:3x 1049

9987:3x 3329

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 = 31429089/(3x1)

LCM = 31429089/3

LCM = 10476363

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 3147,9987 is 10476363.
