Given numbers are 5342,7508

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

The LCM of 5342,7508 is 20053868.

Find LCM of 5342,7508 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2671 x 3754 = 20053868

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 5342,7508 is 20053868.

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.

5342 x 7508 = 40107736

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.

5342 : 1, 2, 2671, 5342

7508 : 1, 2, 4, 1877, 3754, 7508

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 5342,7508, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

5342:2x 2671

7508:2x 2x 1877

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 = 40107736/(2x1)

LCM = 40107736/2

LCM = 20053868

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 5342,7508 is 20053868.
