Given numbers are 9366,8978

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

The LCM of 9366,8978 is 42043974.

Find LCM of 9366,8978 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 4683 x 4489 = 42043974

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 9366,8978 is 42043974.

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.

9366 x 8978 = 84087948

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.

9366 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21, 42, 223, 446, 669, 1338, 1561, 3122, 4683, 9366

8978 : 1, 2, 67, 134, 4489, 8978

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 9366,8978, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

9366:2x 3x 7x 223

8978:2x 67x 67

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 = 84087948/(2x1)

LCM = 84087948/2

LCM = 42043974

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 9366,8978 is 42043974.

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

• LCM of 5101, 6636
• LCM of 5060, 9423
