Given numbers are 237,198,486,154,492
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 237,198,486,154,492 is 242419716.
Find LCM of 237,198,486,154,492 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 237, 198, 486, 154, 492 |
| 3 | 237, 99, 243, 77, 246 |
| 3 | 79, 33, 81, 77, 82 |
| 11 | 79, 11, 27, 77, 82 |
| 79, 1, 27, 7, 82 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 3 x 3 x 11 x 79 x 1 x 27 x 7 x 82 = 242419716
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 237,198,486,154,492 is 242419716.
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.
237 x 198 x 486 x 154 x 492 = 1727967735648
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.
237 : 1, 3, 79, 237
198 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 11, 18, 22, 33, 66, 99, 198
486 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 27, 54, 81, 162, 243, 486
154 : 1, 2, 7, 11, 14, 22, 77, 154
492 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 41, 82, 123, 164, 246, 492
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 237,198,486,154,492, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
237:3x 79
198:2x 3x 3x 11
486:2x 3x 3x 3x 3x 3
154:2x 7x 11
492:2x 2x 3x 41
From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.
2x 2x 2x 3x 3x 3x 3x 11 = 7128
Therefore, the value for common factors is 7128.
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 = 1727967735648/(1x7128)
LCM = 1727967735648/7128
LCM = 242419716
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 237,198,486,154,492 is 242419716.
