Given numbers are 8878,4516

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

The LCM of 8878,4516 is 20046524.

Find LCM of 8878,4516 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 4439 x 2258 = 20046524

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 8878,4516 is 20046524.

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.

8878 x 4516 = 40093048

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.

8878 : 1, 2, 23, 46, 193, 386, 4439, 8878

4516 : 1, 2, 4, 1129, 2258, 4516

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 8878,4516, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

8878:2x 23x 193

4516:2x 2x 1129

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 = 40093048/(2x1)

LCM = 40093048/2

LCM = 20046524

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 8878,4516 is 20046524.

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

• LCM of 1430, 5402
• LCM of 2279, 3896
