Given numbers are 7318,5656

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

The LCM of 7318,5656 is 20695304.

Find LCM of 7318,5656 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3659 x 2828 = 20695304

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 7318,5656 is 20695304.

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.

7318 x 5656 = 41390608

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.

7318 : 1, 2, 3659, 7318

5656 : 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 28, 56, 101, 202, 404, 707, 808, 1414, 2828, 5656

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 7318,5656, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

7318:2x 3659

5656:2x 2x 2x 7x 101

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 = 41390608/(2x1)

LCM = 41390608/2

LCM = 20695304

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 7318,5656 is 20695304.
