Given numbers are 5602,8462

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

The LCM of 5602,8462 is 23702062.

Find LCM of 5602,8462 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2801 x 4231 = 23702062

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 5602,8462 is 23702062.

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.

5602 x 8462 = 47404124

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.

5602 : 1, 2, 2801, 5602

8462 : 1, 2, 4231, 8462

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 5602,8462, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

5602:2x 2801

8462:2x 4231

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 = 47404124/(2x1)

LCM = 47404124/2

LCM = 23702062

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 5602,8462 is 23702062.
