Given numbers are 5146,9904

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

The LCM of 5146,9904 is 25482992.

Find LCM of 5146,9904 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2573 x 4952 = 25482992

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 5146,9904 is 25482992.

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.

5146 x 9904 = 50965984

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.

5146 : 1, 2, 31, 62, 83, 166, 2573, 5146

9904 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 619, 1238, 2476, 4952, 9904

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 5146,9904, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

5146:2x 31x 83

9904:2x 2x 2x 2x 619

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 = 50965984/(2x1)

LCM = 50965984/2

LCM = 25482992

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 5146,9904 is 25482992.

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

• LCM of 8851, 9677
