Use the LCM of two or more numbers Calculator to find the Least Common Multiple of numbers 262, 2978 i.e. 390118 smallest integer divisible by all numbers.
Least common multiple (LCM) of 262, 2978 is 390118.
LCM(262, 2978) = 390118
Least common multiple or lowest common denominator (lcd) can be calculated in three ways
2 | 262, 2978 |
131, 1489 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 131 x 1489 = 390118
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 262,2978 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(262,2978) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(262,2978) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(262,2978) = ( 262 × 2978 ) / 2
LCM(262,2978) = 780236 / 2
LCM(262,2978) = 390118
∴ Least Common Multiple of 262,2978 is 390118
