Given numbers are 5642,8701

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

The LCM of 5642,8701 is 7013006.

Find LCM of 5642,8701 with Prime Factorization

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

7 x 806 x 1243 = 7013006

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 5642,8701 is 7013006.

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.

5642 x 8701 = 49091042

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.

5642 : 1, 2, 7, 13, 14, 26, 31, 62, 91, 182, 217, 403, 434, 806, 2821, 5642

8701 : 1, 7, 11, 77, 113, 791, 1243, 8701

7 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 5642,8701, is 7.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

5642:2x 7x 13x 31

8701:7x 11x 113

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 = 49091042/(7x1)

LCM = 49091042/7

LCM = 7013006

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 5642,8701 is 7013006.

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

• LCM of 4797, 6559
