What is the Least Common Multiple of 8007 and 8021?

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 8007 and 8021 with GCF Formula

The formula of LCM is LCM(a,b) = ( a × b) / GCF(a,b).
We need to calculate greatest common factor 8007 and 8021, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(8007,8021) = 1
LCM(8007,8021) = ( 8007 × 8021) / 1
LCM(8007,8021) = 64224147 / 1
LCM(8007,8021) = 64224147

Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 8007 and 8021 with Primes
