Given numbers are 6554,1642

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

The LCM of 6554,1642 is 5380834.

Find LCM of 6554,1642 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3277 x 821 = 5380834

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 6554,1642 is 5380834.

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.

6554 x 1642 = 10761668

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.

6554 : 1, 2, 29, 58, 113, 226, 3277, 6554

1642 : 1, 2, 821, 1642

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 6554,1642, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

6554:2x 29x 113

1642:2x 821

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 = 10761668/(2x1)

LCM = 10761668/2

LCM = 5380834

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 6554,1642 is 5380834.
