Given numbers are 8735,6990

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

The LCM of 8735,6990 is 12211530.

Find LCM of 8735,6990 with Prime Factorization

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

5 x 1747 x 1398 = 12211530

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 8735,6990 is 12211530.

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.

8735 x 6990 = 61057650

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.

8735 : 1, 5, 1747, 8735

6990 : 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, 30, 233, 466, 699, 1165, 1398, 2330, 3495, 6990

5 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 8735,6990, is 5.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

8735:5x 1747

6990:2x 3x 5x 233

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 = 61057650/(5x1)

LCM = 61057650/5

LCM = 12211530

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 8735,6990 is 12211530.

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

• LCM of 1967, 6823
• LCM of 5712, 2140
