Given numbers are 5882,2238

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

The LCM of 5882,2238 is 6581958.

Find LCM of 5882,2238 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2941 x 1119 = 6581958

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 5882,2238 is 6581958.

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.

5882 x 2238 = 13163916

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.

5882 : 1, 2, 17, 34, 173, 346, 2941, 5882

2238 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 373, 746, 1119, 2238

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 5882,2238, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

5882:2x 17x 173

2238:2x 3x 373

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 = 13163916/(2x1)

LCM = 13163916/2

LCM = 6581958

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 5882,2238 is 6581958.

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

• LCM of 4160, 5711
• LCM of 6543, 9736
