Given numbers are 5482,3722

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

The LCM of 5482,3722 is 10202002.

Find LCM of 5482,3722 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2741 x 1861 = 10202002

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 5482,3722 is 10202002.

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.

5482 x 3722 = 20404004

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.

5482 : 1, 2, 2741, 5482

3722 : 1, 2, 1861, 3722

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 5482,3722, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

5482:2x 2741

3722:2x 1861

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 = 20404004/(2x1)

LCM = 20404004/2

LCM = 10202002

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 5482,3722 is 10202002.
