Given numbers are 5847,2871

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

The LCM of 5847,2871 is 5595579.

Find LCM of 5847,2871 with Prime Factorization

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

3 x 1949 x 957 = 5595579

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 5847,2871 is 5595579.

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.

5847 x 2871 = 16786737

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.

5847 : 1, 3, 1949, 5847

2871 : 1, 3, 9, 11, 29, 33, 87, 99, 261, 319, 957, 2871

3 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 5847,2871, is 3.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

5847:3x 1949

2871:3x 3x 11x 29

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 = 16786737/(3x1)

LCM = 16786737/3

LCM = 5595579

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 5847,2871 is 5595579.

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

• LCM of 6732, 3792
