Given numbers are 6262,3172

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

The LCM of 6262,3172 is 9931532.

Find LCM of 6262,3172 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3131 x 1586 = 9931532

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 6262,3172 is 9931532.

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.

6262 x 3172 = 19863064

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.

6262 : 1, 2, 31, 62, 101, 202, 3131, 6262

3172 : 1, 2, 4, 13, 26, 52, 61, 122, 244, 793, 1586, 3172

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 6262,3172, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

6262:2x 31x 101

3172:2x 2x 13x 61

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 = 19863064/(2x1)

LCM = 19863064/2

LCM = 9931532

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 6262,3172 is 9931532.

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

• LCM of 2677, 7735
