Given numbers are 3946,9448

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

The LCM of 3946,9448 is 18640904.

Find LCM of 3946,9448 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 1973 x 4724 = 18640904

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 3946,9448 is 18640904.

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.

3946 x 9448 = 37281808

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.

3946 : 1, 2, 1973, 3946

9448 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 1181, 2362, 4724, 9448

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 3946,9448, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

3946:2x 1973

9448:2x 2x 2x 1181

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 = 37281808/(2x1)

LCM = 37281808/2

LCM = 18640904

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 3946,9448 is 18640904.
