Given numbers are 9980,8435

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

The LCM of 9980,8435 is 16836260.

Find LCM of 9980,8435 with Prime Factorization

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

5 x 1996 x 1687 = 16836260

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 9980,8435 is 16836260.

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 8435 = 84181300

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

8435 : 1, 5, 7, 35, 241, 1205, 1687, 8435

5 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 9980,8435, is 5.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

9980:2x 2x 5x 499

8435:5x 7x 241

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 = 84181300/(5x1)

LCM = 84181300/5

LCM = 16836260

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 9980,8435 is 16836260.

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

• LCM of 4317, 9605
