Given numbers are 4516,3462

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

The LCM of 4516,3462 is 7817196.

Find LCM of 4516,3462 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2258 x 1731 = 7817196

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 4516,3462 is 7817196.

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.

4516 x 3462 = 15634392

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.

4516 : 1, 2, 4, 1129, 2258, 4516

3462 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 577, 1154, 1731, 3462

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 4516,3462, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

4516:2x 2x 1129

3462:2x 3x 577

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 = 15634392/(2x1)

LCM = 15634392/2

LCM = 7817196

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 4516,3462 is 7817196.

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

• LCM of 7786, 2954
