Given numbers are 6861,2287

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

The LCM of 6861,2287 is 6861.

Find LCM of 6861,2287 with Prime Factorization

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

2287 x 3 x 1 = 6861

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 6861,2287 is 6861.

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.

6861 x 2287 = 15691107

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.

6861 : 1, 3, 2287, 6861

2287 : 1, 2287

2287 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 6861,2287, is 2287.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

6861:3x 2287

2287:2287

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 = 15691107/(2287x1)

LCM = 15691107/2287

LCM = 6861

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 6861,2287 is 6861.
