Given numbers are 8656,5526

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

The LCM of 8656,5526 is 23916528.

Find LCM of 8656,5526 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 4328 x 2763 = 23916528

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 8656,5526 is 23916528.

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.

8656 x 5526 = 47833056

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.

8656 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 541, 1082, 2164, 4328, 8656

5526 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 307, 614, 921, 1842, 2763, 5526

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 8656,5526, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

8656:2x 2x 2x 2x 541

5526:2x 3x 3x 307

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 = 47833056/(2x1)

LCM = 47833056/2

LCM = 23916528

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 8656,5526 is 23916528.

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

• LCM of 7124, 6237
