So, the LCM of 379, 386 is 146294.

One method for determining the LCM of 379 and 386 is to compare the prime factorization of each number. You can find the prime factorization for each number by following the instructions below:

Here is 379's prime factorization:

Prime factors of 379 are 379.

379 = 379¹

And this is 386's prime factorization:

Prime factors of 386 are 2,193.

386 = 2¹×193¹

When comparing the prime factorization of these two numbers, look for the highest power to which each prime factor is raised. In this case, the following primary factors must be considered:379, 2,193

2¹×193¹×379¹ = 146294

This shows that the LCM of 379 and 386 is 146294.

The first step in determining the Least Common Multiple of 379 and 386 is to generate a list of multiples for each number.

Lets look at the multiples of these two numbers, 379 and 386:

Lets look at the first ten multiples of these numbers, 379 and 386:

379,758,1137,1516,1895,2274,2653,3032,3411,6443 are the first ten multiples of 379.

386,772,1158,1544,1930,2316,2702,3088,3474,6562 are the first ten multiples of 386.

You can continue to list the multiples of these numbers until you find a match. Once you have found a match, or several matches, the Least Common Multiple is the smallest of these matches. The first matching multiple(s) of 379 and 386, for example, are 4548, 6443, and 6176. 146294 is the least common multiple since it is the smallest.

379 and 386 have an LCM of 146294.

The formula of LCM is LCM(a,b) = ( a × b) / GCF(a,b).
We need to calculate greatest common factor 379 and 386, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(379,386) = 1
LCM(379,386) = ( 379 × 386) / 1
LCM(379,386) = 146294 / 1
LCM(379,386) = 146294
