Given numbers are 7948,9698

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

The LCM of 7948,9698 is 38539852.

Find LCM of 7948,9698 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3974 x 4849 = 38539852

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 7948,9698 is 38539852.

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.

7948 x 9698 = 77079704

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.

7948 : 1, 2, 4, 1987, 3974, 7948

9698 : 1, 2, 13, 26, 373, 746, 4849, 9698

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 7948,9698, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

7948:2x 2x 1987

9698:2x 13x 373

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 = 77079704/(2x1)

LCM = 77079704/2

LCM = 38539852

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 7948,9698 is 38539852.

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

• LCM of 4200, 1450
• LCM of 8271, 6399
