Given numbers are 9980,5285

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

The LCM of 9980,5285 is 10548860.

Find LCM of 9980,5285 with Prime Factorization

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

5 x 1996 x 1057 = 10548860

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 9980,5285 is 10548860.

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.

9980 x 5285 = 52744300

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.

9980 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 499, 998, 1996, 2495, 4990, 9980

5285 : 1, 5, 7, 35, 151, 755, 1057, 5285

5 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 9980,5285, is 5.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

9980:2x 2x 5x 499

5285:5x 7x 151

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 = 52744300/(5x1)

LCM = 52744300/5

LCM = 10548860

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 9980,5285 is 10548860.

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

• LCM of 5993, 1880
