Given numbers are 8517,3087

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

The LCM of 8517,3087 is 8763993.

Find LCM of 8517,3087 with Prime Factorization

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

3 x 2839 x 1029 = 8763993

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 8517,3087 is 8763993.

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.

8517 x 3087 = 26291979

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.

8517 : 1, 3, 17, 51, 167, 501, 2839, 8517

3087 : 1, 3, 7, 9, 21, 49, 63, 147, 343, 441, 1029, 3087

3 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 8517,3087, is 3.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

8517:3x 17x 167

3087:3x 3x 7x 7x 7

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 = 26291979/(3x1)

LCM = 26291979/3

LCM = 8763993

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 8517,3087 is 8763993.

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

• LCM of 8118, 7403
• LCM of 6965, 6507
