Given numbers are 3704,7842

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

The LCM of 3704,7842 is 14523384.

Find LCM of 3704,7842 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 1852 x 3921 = 14523384

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 3704,7842 is 14523384.

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.

3704 x 7842 = 29046768

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.

3704 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 463, 926, 1852, 3704

7842 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 1307, 2614, 3921, 7842

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 3704,7842, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

3704:2x 2x 2x 463

7842:2x 3x 1307

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 = 29046768/(2x1)

LCM = 29046768/2

LCM = 14523384

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 3704,7842 is 14523384.

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

• LCM of 1528, 6025
• LCM of 2182, 4821
