Given numbers are 6722,4978

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

The LCM of 6722,4978 is 16731058.

Find LCM of 6722,4978 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3361 x 2489 = 16731058

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 6722,4978 is 16731058.

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.

6722 x 4978 = 33462116

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.

6722 : 1, 2, 3361, 6722

4978 : 1, 2, 19, 38, 131, 262, 2489, 4978

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 6722,4978, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

6722:2x 3361

4978:2x 19x 131

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 = 33462116/(2x1)

LCM = 33462116/2

LCM = 16731058

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 6722,4978 is 16731058.
