Given numbers are 9878,4521

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

The LCM of 9878,4521 is 4059858.

Find LCM of 9878,4521 with Prime Factorization

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

11 x 898 x 411 = 4059858

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 9878,4521 is 4059858.

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.

9878 x 4521 = 44658438

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.

9878 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 449, 898, 4939, 9878

4521 : 1, 3, 11, 33, 137, 411, 1507, 4521

11 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 9878,4521, is 11.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

9878:2x 11x 449

4521:3x 11x 137

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 = 44658438/(11x1)

LCM = 44658438/11

LCM = 4059858

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 9878,4521 is 4059858.

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

• LCM of 3164, 1668
• LCM of 5185, 3865
