Given numbers are 6554,1842

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

The LCM of 6554,1842 is 6036234.

Find LCM of 6554,1842 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3277 x 921 = 6036234

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 6554,1842 is 6036234.

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 1842 = 12072468

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

1842 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 307, 614, 921, 1842

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 6554,1842, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

6554:2x 29x 113

1842:2x 3x 307

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 = 12072468/(2x1)

LCM = 12072468/2

LCM = 6036234

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 6554,1842 is 6036234.

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

• LCM of 9685, 2010
• LCM of 3304, 8573
