Given numbers are 6554,6874

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

The LCM of 6554,6874 is 22526098.

Find LCM of 6554,6874 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3277 x 3437 = 22526098

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 6554,6874 is 22526098.

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 6874 = 45052196

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

6874 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 491, 982, 3437, 6874

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 6554,6874, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

6554:2x 29x 113

6874:2x 7x 491

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 = 45052196/(2x1)

LCM = 45052196/2

LCM = 22526098

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 6554,6874 is 22526098.

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