Given numbers are 8980,9938

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

The LCM of 8980,9938 is 44621620.

Find LCM of 8980,9938 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 4490 x 4969 = 44621620

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 8980,9938 is 44621620.

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.

8980 x 9938 = 89243240

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.

8980 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 449, 898, 1796, 2245, 4490, 8980

9938 : 1, 2, 4969, 9938

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 8980,9938, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

8980:2x 2x 5x 449

9938:2x 4969

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 = 89243240/(2x1)

LCM = 89243240/2

LCM = 44621620

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 8980,9938 is 44621620.

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

• LCM of 3690, 2198
• LCM of 8795, 9255
