Given numbers are 8374,4582

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

The LCM of 8374,4582 is 242846.

Find LCM of 8374,4582 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 79 x 53 x 29 = 242846

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 8374,4582 is 242846.

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.

8374 x 4582 = 38369668

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.

8374 : 1, 2, 53, 79, 106, 158, 4187, 8374

4582 : 1, 2, 29, 58, 79, 158, 2291, 4582

158 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 8374,4582, is 158.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

8374:2x 53x 79

4582:2x 29x 79

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 = 38369668/(158x1)

LCM = 38369668/158

LCM = 242846

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 8374,4582 is 242846.
