Given numbers are 5551,9178

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

The LCM of 5551,9178 is 3919006.

Find LCM of 5551,9178 with Prime Factorization

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

13 x 427 x 706 = 3919006

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 5551,9178 is 3919006.

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.

5551 x 9178 = 50947078

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.

5551 : 1, 7, 13, 61, 91, 427, 793, 5551

9178 : 1, 2, 13, 26, 353, 706, 4589, 9178

13 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 5551,9178, is 13.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

5551:7x 13x 61

9178:2x 13x 353

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 = 50947078/(13x1)

LCM = 50947078/13

LCM = 3919006

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 5551,9178 is 3919006.

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

• LCM of 8612, 6157
