Given numbers are 6056,5462

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

The LCM of 6056,5462 is 16538936.

Find LCM of 6056,5462 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3028 x 2731 = 16538936

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 6056,5462 is 16538936.

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.

6056 x 5462 = 33077872

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.

6056 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 757, 1514, 3028, 6056

5462 : 1, 2, 2731, 5462

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 6056,5462, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

6056:2x 2x 2x 757

5462:2x 2731

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 = 33077872/(2x1)

LCM = 33077872/2

LCM = 16538936

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 6056,5462 is 16538936.
