Given numbers are 5901,8826

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

The LCM of 5901,8826 is 17360742.

Find LCM of 5901,8826 with Prime Factorization

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

3 x 1967 x 2942 = 17360742

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 5901,8826 is 17360742.

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.

5901 x 8826 = 52082226

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.

5901 : 1, 3, 7, 21, 281, 843, 1967, 5901

8826 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 1471, 2942, 4413, 8826

3 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 5901,8826, is 3.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

5901:3x 7x 281

8826:2x 3x 1471

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 = 52082226/(3x1)

LCM = 52082226/3

LCM = 17360742

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 5901,8826 is 17360742.

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

• LCM of 7323, 9721
• LCM of 5510, 4650
