Given numbers are 5038,1282

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

The LCM of 5038,1282 is 3229358.

Find LCM of 5038,1282 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2519 x 641 = 3229358

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 5038,1282 is 3229358.

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.

5038 x 1282 = 6458716

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.

5038 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 229, 458, 2519, 5038

1282 : 1, 2, 641, 1282

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 5038,1282, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

5038:2x 11x 229

1282:2x 641

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 = 6458716/(2x1)

LCM = 6458716/2

LCM = 3229358

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 5038,1282 is 3229358.
