Given numbers are 3957,4959

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

The LCM of 3957,4959 is 6540921.

Find LCM of 3957,4959 with Prime Factorization

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

3 x 1319 x 1653 = 6540921

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 3957,4959 is 6540921.

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.

3957 x 4959 = 19622763

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.

3957 : 1, 3, 1319, 3957

4959 : 1, 3, 9, 19, 29, 57, 87, 171, 261, 551, 1653, 4959

3 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 3957,4959, is 3.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

3957:3x 1319

4959:3x 3x 19x 29

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 = 19622763/(3x1)

LCM = 19622763/3

LCM = 6540921

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 3957,4959 is 6540921.

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

• LCM of 9874, 3481
• LCM of 9486, 5605
