Given numbers are 6404,8952

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

The LCM of 6404,8952 is 14332152.

Find LCM of 6404,8952 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 1601 x 2238 = 14332152

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 6404,8952 is 14332152.

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.

6404 x 8952 = 57328608

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.

6404 : 1, 2, 4, 1601, 3202, 6404

8952 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 373, 746, 1119, 1492, 2238, 2984, 4476, 8952

4 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 6404,8952, is 4.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

6404:2x 2x 1601

8952:2x 2x 2x 3x 373

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 = 57328608/(4x1)

LCM = 57328608/4

LCM = 14332152

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 6404,8952 is 14332152.

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

• LCM of 5526, 1587
• LCM of 1516, 8237
