What is the Least Common Multiple of 1901 and 1907?

Least common multiple or lowest common denominator (lcd) can be calculated in two way; with the LCM formula calculation of greatest common factor (GCF), or multiplying the prime factors with the highest exponent factor.

Least Common Multiple of 1901 and 1907 with GCF Formula

The formula of LCM is LCM(a,b) = ( a × b) / GCF(a,b).
We need to calculate greatest common factor 1901 and 1907, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(1901,1907) = 1
LCM(1901,1907) = ( 1901 × 1907) / 1
LCM(1901,1907) = 3625207 / 1
LCM(1901,1907) = 3625207

Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 1901 and 1907 with Primes

Least common multiple can be found by multiplying the highest exponent prime factors of 1901 and 1907. First we will calculate the prime factors of 1901 and 1907.

Prime Factorization of 1901

Prime Factorization of 1907

Now multiplying the highest exponent prime factors to calculate the LCM of 1901 and 1907.

LCM(1901,1907) = 1901¹ × 1907¹
LCM(1901,1907) = 3625207
