What is the Least Common Multiple of 1913 and 1917?

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 1913 and 1917 with GCF Formula

The formula of LCM is LCM(a,b) = ( a × b) / GCF(a,b).
We need to calculate greatest common factor 1913 and 1917, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(1913,1917) = 1
LCM(1913,1917) = ( 1913 × 1917) / 1
LCM(1913,1917) = 3667221 / 1
LCM(1913,1917) = 3667221

Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 1913 and 1917 with Primes
