Given numbers are 8606,7966

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

The LCM of 8606,7966 is 34277698.

Find LCM of 8606,7966 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 4303 x 3983 = 34277698

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 8606,7966 is 34277698.

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.

8606 x 7966 = 68555396

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.

8606 : 1, 2, 13, 26, 331, 662, 4303, 8606

7966 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 569, 1138, 3983, 7966

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 8606,7966, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

8606:2x 13x 331

7966:2x 7x 569

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 = 68555396/(2x1)

LCM = 68555396/2

LCM = 34277698

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 8606,7966 is 34277698.
