Given numbers are 9985,5915

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

The LCM of 9985,5915 is 11812255.

Find LCM of 9985,5915 with Prime Factorization

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

5 x 1997 x 1183 = 11812255

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 9985,5915 is 11812255.

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.

9985 x 5915 = 59061275

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.

9985 : 1, 5, 1997, 9985

5915 : 1, 5, 7, 13, 35, 65, 91, 169, 455, 845, 1183, 5915

5 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 9985,5915, is 5.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

9985:5x 1997

5915:5x 7x 13x 13

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 = 59061275/(5x1)

LCM = 59061275/5

LCM = 11812255

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 9985,5915 is 11812255.

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

• LCM of 5275, 5846
