Given numbers are 4996,5498

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

The LCM of 4996,5498 is 13734004.

Find LCM of 4996,5498 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2498 x 2749 = 13734004

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 4996,5498 is 13734004.

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.

4996 x 5498 = 27468008

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.

4996 : 1, 2, 4, 1249, 2498, 4996

5498 : 1, 2, 2749, 5498

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 4996,5498, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

4996:2x 2x 1249

5498:2x 2749

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 = 27468008/(2x1)

LCM = 27468008/2

LCM = 13734004

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 4996,5498 is 13734004.
