Given numbers are 7132,5746

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

The LCM of 7132,5746 is 20490236.

Find LCM of 7132,5746 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3566 x 2873 = 20490236

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 7132,5746 is 20490236.

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.

7132 x 5746 = 40980472

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.

7132 : 1, 2, 4, 1783, 3566, 7132

5746 : 1, 2, 13, 17, 26, 34, 169, 221, 338, 442, 2873, 5746

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 7132,5746, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

7132:2x 2x 1783

5746:2x 13x 13x 17

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 = 40980472/(2x1)

LCM = 40980472/2

LCM = 20490236

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 7132,5746 is 20490236.

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

• LCM of 7430, 8023
