Given numbers are 7372,3596

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

The LCM of 7372,3596 is 6627428.

Find LCM of 7372,3596 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 1843 x 899 = 6627428

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 7372,3596 is 6627428.

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.

7372 x 3596 = 26509712

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.

7372 : 1, 2, 4, 19, 38, 76, 97, 194, 388, 1843, 3686, 7372

3596 : 1, 2, 4, 29, 31, 58, 62, 116, 124, 899, 1798, 3596

4 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 7372,3596, is 4.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

7372:2x 2x 19x 97

3596:2x 2x 29x 31

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 = 26509712/(4x1)

LCM = 26509712/4

LCM = 6627428

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 7372,3596 is 6627428.

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

• LCM of 6348, 4098
