Given numbers are 6457,1738

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

The LCM of 6457,1738 is 1020206.

Find LCM of 6457,1738 with Prime Factorization

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

11 x 587 x 158 = 1020206

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 6457,1738 is 1020206.

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.

6457 x 1738 = 11222266

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.

6457 : 1, 11, 587, 6457

1738 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 79, 158, 869, 1738

11 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 6457,1738, is 11.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

6457:11x 587

1738:2x 11x 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 = 11222266/(11x1)

LCM = 11222266/11

LCM = 1020206

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 6457,1738 is 1020206.
