Given numbers are 9701,8720

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

The LCM of 9701,8720 is 776080.

Find LCM of 9701,8720 with Prime Factorization

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

109 x 89 x 80 = 776080

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 9701,8720 is 776080.

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.

9701 x 8720 = 84592720

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.

9701 : 1, 89, 109, 9701

8720 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, 40, 80, 109, 218, 436, 545, 872, 1090, 1744, 2180, 4360, 8720

109 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 9701,8720, is 109.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

9701:89x 109

8720:2x 2x 2x 2x 5x 109

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 = 84592720/(109x1)

LCM = 84592720/109

LCM = 776080

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 9701,8720 is 776080.
