Least Common Multiple of 1000 and 1017 with GCF Formula

The formula of LCM is LCM(a,b) = ( a × b) / GCF(a,b).
We need to calculate greatest common factor 1000 and 1017, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(1000,1017) = 1
LCM(1000,1017) = ( 1000 × 1017) / 1
LCM(1000,1017) = 1017000 / 1
LCM(1000,1017) = 1017000

Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 1000 and 1017 with Primes

Least common multiple can be found by multiplying the highest exponent prime factors of 1000 and 1017. First we will calculate the prime factors of 1000 and 1017.

Prime Factorization of 1000

Prime factors of 1000 are 2, 5. Prime factorization of 1000 in exponential form is:

1000 = 23 × 53

Prime Factorization of 1017

Prime factors of 1017 are 3, 113. Prime factorization of 1017 in exponential form is:

1017 = 32 × 1131

Now multiplying the highest exponent prime factors to calculate the LCM of 1000 and 1017.

LCM(1000,1017) = 23 × 53 × 32 × 1131
LCM(1000,1017) = 1017000
