Given numbers are 5548,9722

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

The LCM of 5548,9722 is 26968828.

Find LCM of 5548,9722 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2774 x 4861 = 26968828

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 5548,9722 is 26968828.

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.

5548 x 9722 = 53937656

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.

5548 : 1, 2, 4, 19, 38, 73, 76, 146, 292, 1387, 2774, 5548

9722 : 1, 2, 4861, 9722

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 5548,9722, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

5548:2x 2x 19x 73

9722:2x 4861

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 = 53937656/(2x1)

LCM = 53937656/2

LCM = 26968828

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 5548,9722 is 26968828.

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

• LCM of 3597, 3322
• LCM of 4905, 3647
