Given numbers are 8657,8404

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

The LCM of 8657,8404 is 6613948.

Find LCM of 8657,8404 with Prime Factorization

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

11 x 787 x 764 = 6613948

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 8657,8404 is 6613948.

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.

8657 x 8404 = 72753428

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.

8657 : 1, 11, 787, 8657

8404 : 1, 2, 4, 11, 22, 44, 191, 382, 764, 2101, 4202, 8404

11 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 8657,8404, is 11.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

8657:11x 787

8404:2x 2x 11x 191

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 = 72753428/(11x1)

LCM = 72753428/11

LCM = 6613948

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 8657,8404 is 6613948.

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

• LCM of 6301, 4520
• LCM of 1735, 1098
