Given numbers are 4472,5602

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

The LCM of 4472,5602 is 12526072.

Find LCM of 4472,5602 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2236 x 2801 = 12526072

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 4472,5602 is 12526072.

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.

4472 x 5602 = 25052144

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.

4472 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 13, 26, 43, 52, 86, 104, 172, 344, 559, 1118, 2236, 4472

5602 : 1, 2, 2801, 5602

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 4472,5602, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

4472:2x 2x 2x 13x 43

5602:2x 2801

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 = 25052144/(2x1)

LCM = 25052144/2

LCM = 12526072

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 4472,5602 is 12526072.

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

• LCM of 3881, 1164
• LCM of 3550, 8842
