Given numbers are 5258,8618

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

The LCM of 5258,8618 is 22656722.

Find LCM of 5258,8618 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2629 x 4309 = 22656722

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 5258,8618 is 22656722.

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.

5258 x 8618 = 45313444

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.

5258 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 239, 478, 2629, 5258

8618 : 1, 2, 31, 62, 139, 278, 4309, 8618

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 5258,8618, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

5258:2x 11x 239

8618:2x 31x 139

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 = 45313444/(2x1)

LCM = 45313444/2

LCM = 22656722

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 5258,8618 is 22656722.

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

• LCM of 2375, 8861
• LCM of 2478, 8166
