Given numbers are 8596,5228

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

The LCM of 8596,5228 is 11234972.

Find LCM of 8596,5228 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 2149 x 1307 = 11234972

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 8596,5228 is 11234972.

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.

8596 x 5228 = 44939888

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.

8596 : 1, 2, 4, 7, 14, 28, 307, 614, 1228, 2149, 4298, 8596

5228 : 1, 2, 4, 1307, 2614, 5228

4 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 8596,5228, is 4.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

8596:2x 2x 7x 307

5228:2x 2x 1307

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 = 44939888/(4x1)

LCM = 44939888/4

LCM = 11234972

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 8596,5228 is 11234972.
