Given numbers are 8943,1272

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

The LCM of 8943,1272 is 3791832.

Find LCM of 8943,1272 with Prime Factorization

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

3 x 2981 x 424 = 3791832

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 8943,1272 is 3791832.

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.

8943 x 1272 = 11375496

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.

8943 : 1, 3, 11, 33, 271, 813, 2981, 8943

1272 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 53, 106, 159, 212, 318, 424, 636, 1272

3 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 8943,1272, is 3.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

8943:3x 11x 271

1272:2x 2x 2x 3x 53

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 = 11375496/(3x1)

LCM = 11375496/3

LCM = 3791832

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 8943,1272 is 3791832.

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

• LCM of 7576, 5456
