Given numbers are 8174,6968

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

The LCM of 8174,6968 is 425048.

Find LCM of 8174,6968 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 67 x 61 x 52 = 425048

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 8174,6968 is 425048.

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.

8174 x 6968 = 56956432

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.

8174 : 1, 2, 61, 67, 122, 134, 4087, 8174

6968 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 13, 26, 52, 67, 104, 134, 268, 536, 871, 1742, 3484, 6968

134 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 8174,6968, is 134.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

8174:2x 61x 67

6968:2x 2x 2x 13x 67

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 = 56956432/(134x1)

LCM = 56956432/134

LCM = 425048

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 8174,6968 is 425048.
