Given numbers are 548,3568

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

The LCM of 548,3568 is 488816.

Find LCM of 548,3568 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 137 x 892 = 488816

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 548,3568 is 488816.

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.

548 x 3568 = 1955264

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.

548 : 1, 2, 4, 137, 274, 548

3568 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 223, 446, 892, 1784, 3568

4 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 548,3568, is 4.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

548:2x 2x 137

3568:2x 2x 2x 2x 223

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 = 1955264/(4x1)

LCM = 1955264/4

LCM = 488816

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 548,3568 is 488816.
