Given numbers are 8506,8746

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

The LCM of 8506,8746 is 37196738.

Find LCM of 8506,8746 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 4253 x 4373 = 37196738

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 8506,8746 is 37196738.

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.

8506 x 8746 = 74393476

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.

8506 : 1, 2, 4253, 8506

8746 : 1, 2, 4373, 8746

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 8506,8746, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

8506:2x 4253

8746:2x 4373

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 = 74393476/(2x1)

LCM = 74393476/2

LCM = 37196738

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 8506,8746 is 37196738.
