Given numbers are 5948,6424

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

The LCM of 5948,6424 is 9552488.

Find LCM of 5948,6424 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 1487 x 1606 = 9552488

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 5948,6424 is 9552488.

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.

5948 x 6424 = 38209952

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.

5948 : 1, 2, 4, 1487, 2974, 5948

6424 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 11, 22, 44, 73, 88, 146, 292, 584, 803, 1606, 3212, 6424

4 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 5948,6424, is 4.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

5948:2x 2x 1487

6424:2x 2x 2x 11x 73

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 = 38209952/(4x1)

LCM = 38209952/4

LCM = 9552488

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 5948,6424 is 9552488.
