Given numbers are 7886,8242

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

The LCM of 7886,8242 is 32498206.

Find LCM of 7886,8242 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3943 x 4121 = 32498206

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 7886,8242 is 32498206.

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.

7886 x 8242 = 64996412

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.

7886 : 1, 2, 3943, 7886

8242 : 1, 2, 13, 26, 317, 634, 4121, 8242

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 7886,8242, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

7886:2x 3943

8242:2x 13x 317

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 = 64996412/(2x1)

LCM = 64996412/2

LCM = 32498206

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 7886,8242 is 32498206.
