Given numbers are 8993,9982

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

The LCM of 8993,9982 is 3902962.

Find LCM of 8993,9982 with Prime Factorization

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

23 x 391 x 434 = 3902962

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 8993,9982 is 3902962.

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.

8993 x 9982 = 89768126

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.

8993 : 1, 17, 23, 391, 529, 8993

9982 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 23, 31, 46, 62, 161, 217, 322, 434, 713, 1426, 4991, 9982

23 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 8993,9982, is 23.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

8993:17x 23x 23

9982:2x 7x 23x 31

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 = 89768126/(23x1)

LCM = 89768126/23

LCM = 3902962

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 8993,9982 is 3902962.

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

• LCM of 9579, 1331
