Given numbers are 8518,5164

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

The LCM of 8518,5164 is 21993476.

Find LCM of 8518,5164 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 4259 x 2582 = 21993476

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 8518,5164 is 21993476.

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.

8518 x 5164 = 43986952

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.

8518 : 1, 2, 4259, 8518

5164 : 1, 2, 4, 1291, 2582, 5164

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 8518,5164, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

8518:2x 4259

5164:2x 2x 1291

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 = 43986952/(2x1)

LCM = 43986952/2

LCM = 21993476

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 8518,5164 is 21993476.
