Given numbers are 5986,3818

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

The LCM of 5986,3818 is 11427274.

Find LCM of 5986,3818 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2993 x 1909 = 11427274

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 5986,3818 is 11427274.

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.

5986 x 3818 = 22854548

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.

5986 : 1, 2, 41, 73, 82, 146, 2993, 5986

3818 : 1, 2, 23, 46, 83, 166, 1909, 3818

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 5986,3818, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

5986:2x 41x 73

3818:2x 23x 83

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 = 22854548/(2x1)

LCM = 22854548/2

LCM = 11427274

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 5986,3818 is 11427274.

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

• LCM of 9177, 3543
• LCM of 9150, 8961
