Given numbers are 8524,7204

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

The LCM of 8524,7204 is 15351724.

Find LCM of 8524,7204 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 2131 x 1801 = 15351724

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 8524,7204 is 15351724.

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.

8524 x 7204 = 61406896

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.

8524 : 1, 2, 4, 2131, 4262, 8524

7204 : 1, 2, 4, 1801, 3602, 7204

4 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 8524,7204, is 4.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

8524:2x 2x 2131

7204:2x 2x 1801

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 = 61406896/(4x1)

LCM = 61406896/4

LCM = 15351724

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 8524,7204 is 15351724.

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

• LCM of 1879, 9618
