Given numbers are 6766,8462

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

The LCM of 6766,8462 is 28626946.

Find LCM of 6766,8462 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3383 x 4231 = 28626946

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 6766,8462 is 28626946.

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.

6766 x 8462 = 57253892

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.

6766 : 1, 2, 17, 34, 199, 398, 3383, 6766

8462 : 1, 2, 4231, 8462

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 6766,8462, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

6766:2x 17x 199

8462:2x 4231

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 = 57253892/(2x1)

LCM = 57253892/2

LCM = 28626946

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 6766,8462 is 28626946.
