Given numbers are 8885,9985

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

The LCM of 8885,9985 is 17743345.

Find LCM of 8885,9985 with Prime Factorization

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

5 x 1777 x 1997 = 17743345

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 8885,9985 is 17743345.

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.

8885 x 9985 = 88716725

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.

8885 : 1, 5, 1777, 8885

9985 : 1, 5, 1997, 9985

5 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 8885,9985, is 5.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

8885:5x 1777

9985:5x 1997

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 = 88716725/(5x1)

LCM = 88716725/5

LCM = 17743345

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 8885,9985 is 17743345.
