Given numbers are 8701,4221

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

The LCM of 8701,4221 is 5246703.

Find LCM of 8701,4221 with Prime Factorization

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

7 x 1243 x 603 = 5246703

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 8701,4221 is 5246703.

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.

8701 x 4221 = 36726921

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.

8701 : 1, 7, 11, 77, 113, 791, 1243, 8701

4221 : 1, 3, 7, 9, 21, 63, 67, 201, 469, 603, 1407, 4221

7 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 8701,4221, is 7.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

8701:7x 11x 113

4221:3x 3x 7x 67

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 = 36726921/(7x1)

LCM = 36726921/7

LCM = 5246703

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 8701,4221 is 5246703.

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

• LCM of 1698, 4652
• LCM of 1151, 3763
