Given numbers are 8331,4278

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

The LCM of 8331,4278 is 11880006.

Find LCM of 8331,4278 with Prime Factorization

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

3 x 2777 x 1426 = 11880006

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 8331,4278 is 11880006.

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.

8331 x 4278 = 35640018

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.

8331 : 1, 3, 2777, 8331

4278 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 23, 31, 46, 62, 69, 93, 138, 186, 713, 1426, 2139, 4278

3 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 8331,4278, is 3.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

8331:3x 2777

4278:2x 3x 23x 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 = 35640018/(3x1)

LCM = 35640018/3

LCM = 11880006

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 8331,4278 is 11880006.

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

• LCM of 9174, 7318
