Given numbers are 4959,2943

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

The LCM of 4959,2943 is 1621593.

Find LCM of 4959,2943 with Prime Factorization

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

3 x 3 x 551 x 327 = 1621593

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 4959,2943 is 1621593.

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.

4959 x 2943 = 14594337

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.

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

2943 : 1, 3, 9, 27, 109, 327, 981, 2943

9 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 4959,2943, is 9.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

4959:3x 3x 19x 29

2943:3x 3x 3x 109

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 = 14594337/(9x1)

LCM = 14594337/9

LCM = 1621593

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 4959,2943 is 1621593.

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

• LCM of 5739, 5346
