Given numbers are 8956,7684

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

The LCM of 8956,7684 is 17204476.

Find LCM of 8956,7684 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 2239 x 1921 = 17204476

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 8956,7684 is 17204476.

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.

8956 x 7684 = 68817904

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.

8956 : 1, 2, 4, 2239, 4478, 8956

7684 : 1, 2, 4, 17, 34, 68, 113, 226, 452, 1921, 3842, 7684

4 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 8956,7684, is 4.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

8956:2x 2x 2239

7684:2x 2x 17x 113

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 = 68817904/(4x1)

LCM = 68817904/4

LCM = 17204476

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 8956,7684 is 17204476.

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

• LCM of 4043, 8782
