Given numbers are 6416,5846

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

The LCM of 6416,5846 is 18753968.

Find LCM of 6416,5846 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3208 x 2923 = 18753968

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 6416,5846 is 18753968.

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.

6416 x 5846 = 37507936

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.

6416 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 401, 802, 1604, 3208, 6416

5846 : 1, 2, 37, 74, 79, 158, 2923, 5846

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 6416,5846, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

6416:2x 2x 2x 2x 401

5846:2x 37x 79

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 = 37507936/(2x1)

LCM = 37507936/2

LCM = 18753968

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 6416,5846 is 18753968.

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

• LCM of 5741, 6741
• LCM of 1163, 6396
