Given numbers are 408,276,284,422
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 408,276,284,422 is 140581704.
Find LCM of 408,276,284,422 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 408, 276, 284, 422 |
| 2 | 204, 138, 142, 211 |
| 3 | 102, 69, 71, 211 |
| 34, 23, 71, 211 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 3 x 34 x 23 x 71 x 211 = 140581704
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 408,276,284,422 is 140581704.
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.
408 x 276 x 284 x 422 = 13495843584
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.
408 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 17, 24, 34, 51, 68, 102, 136, 204, 408
276 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 23, 46, 69, 92, 138, 276
284 : 1, 2, 4, 71, 142, 284
422 : 1, 2, 211, 422
2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 408,276,284,422, is 2.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
408:2x 2x 2x 3x 17
276:2x 2x 3x 23
284:2x 2x 71
422:2x 211
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 2x 3 = 48
Therefore, the value for common factors is 48.
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 = 13495843584/(2x48)
LCM = 13495843584/96
LCM = 140581704
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 408,276,284,422 is 140581704.
