Given numbers are 3442,8924

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

The LCM of 3442,8924 is 15358204.

Find LCM of 3442,8924 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 1721 x 4462 = 15358204

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 3442,8924 is 15358204.

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.

3442 x 8924 = 30716408

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.

3442 : 1, 2, 1721, 3442

8924 : 1, 2, 4, 23, 46, 92, 97, 194, 388, 2231, 4462, 8924

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 3442,8924, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

3442:2x 1721

8924:2x 2x 23x 97

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 = 30716408/(2x1)

LCM = 30716408/2

LCM = 15358204

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 3442,8924 is 15358204.

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

• LCM of 2583, 6159
• LCM of 5003, 7942
