Given numbers are 5242,7766

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

The LCM of 5242,7766 is 20354686.

Find LCM of 5242,7766 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2621 x 3883 = 20354686

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 5242,7766 is 20354686.

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.

5242 x 7766 = 40709372

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.

5242 : 1, 2, 2621, 5242

7766 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 353, 706, 3883, 7766

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 5242,7766, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

5242:2x 2621

7766:2x 11x 353

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 = 40709372/(2x1)

LCM = 40709372/2

LCM = 20354686

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 5242,7766 is 20354686.
