Given numbers are 187,408,493,741
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 187,408,493,741 is 32147544.
Find LCM of 187,408,493,741 with Prime Factorization
| 3 | 187, 408, 493, 741 |
| 17 | 187, 136, 493, 247 |
| 11, 8, 29, 247 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
3 x 17 x 11 x 8 x 29 x 247 = 32147544
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 187,408,493,741 is 32147544.
LCM formula is LCM(a1, a2, an) = (a1 x a2 x an)/{GCF(a1 x a2 x an) x common factors}
Firstly, we have to find the product of all the numbers.
187 x 408 x 493 x 741 = 27871920648
Then, let us find the GCF of these five numbers. To do so, we have to list down the factors for each number and choose the highest factor that is in all of the lists.
187 : 1, 11, 17, 187
408 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 17, 24, 34, 51, 68, 102, 136, 204, 408
493 : 1, 17, 29, 493
741 : 1, 3, 13, 19, 39, 57, 247, 741
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 187,408,493,741, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
187:11x 17
408:2x 2x 2x 3x 17
493:17x 29
741:3x 13x 19
From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.
3x 17x 17 = 867
Therefore, the value for common factors is 867.
Now that we have all the elements of the formula, we can plug them in to calculate the LCM.
LCM(a1, a2, an) = (a1 x a2 x an)/{GCF(a1 x a2 x an) x common factors}
LCM = 27871920648/(1x867)
LCM = 27871920648/867
LCM = 32147544
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 187,408,493,741 is 32147544.
