Given numbers are 6261,8574

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

The LCM of 6261,8574 is 17893938.

Find LCM of 6261,8574 with Prime Factorization

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

3 x 2087 x 2858 = 17893938

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 6261,8574 is 17893938.

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.

6261 x 8574 = 53681814

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.

6261 : 1, 3, 2087, 6261

8574 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 1429, 2858, 4287, 8574

3 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 6261,8574, is 3.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

6261:3x 2087

8574:2x 3x 1429

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 = 53681814/(3x1)

LCM = 53681814/3

LCM = 17893938

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 6261,8574 is 17893938.
