Given numbers are 3258,9596

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

The LCM of 3258,9596 is 15631884.

Find LCM of 3258,9596 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 1629 x 4798 = 15631884

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 3258,9596 is 15631884.

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.

3258 x 9596 = 31263768

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.

3258 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 181, 362, 543, 1086, 1629, 3258

9596 : 1, 2, 4, 2399, 4798, 9596

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 3258,9596, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

3258:2x 3x 3x 181

9596:2x 2x 2399

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 = 31263768/(2x1)

LCM = 31263768/2

LCM = 15631884

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 3258,9596 is 15631884.

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

• LCM of 7151, 1670
• LCM of 5597, 7214
