Given numbers are 370,668,960
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 370,668,960 is 5931840.
Find LCM of 370,668,960 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 370, 668, 960 |
| 2 | 185, 334, 480 |
| 5 | 185, 167, 240 |
| 37, 167, 48 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 5 x 37 x 167 x 48 = 5931840
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 370,668,960 is 5931840.
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.
370 x 668 x 960 = 237273600
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.
370 : 1, 2, 5, 10, 37, 74, 185, 370
668 : 1, 2, 4, 167, 334, 668
960 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 16, 20, 24, 30, 32, 40, 48, 60, 64, 80, 96, 120, 160, 192, 240, 320, 480, 960
2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 370,668,960, is 2.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
370:2x 5x 37
668:2x 2x 167
960:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 3x 5
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 5 = 20
Therefore, the value for common factors is 20.
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 = 237273600/(2x20)
LCM = 237273600/40
LCM = 5931840
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 370,668,960 is 5931840.
