Given Numbers are 430, 438

We can find the LCM of 430, 438 using the brute force method, prime factorization method, or GCD method.

To use brute force method, list the multiples of 430 and 438

Multiples of 430 =430,860,1290,1720,2150,2580,3010,3440,3870,4300,4730,5160,5590,6020,6450,6880,7310,

Multiples of 438 =438,876,1314,1752,2190,2628,3066,3504,3942,4380,4818,5256,5694,6132,6570,7008,7446,

Now, get the least common multiple of 430, 438 which is 94170

So, the LCM of 430, 438 is 94170.

One method for determining the LCM of 430 and 438 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 430's prime factorization:

Prime factors of 430 are 2, 5,43.

430 = 2¹×5¹×43¹

And this is 438's prime factorization:

Prime factors of 438 are 2, 3,73.

438 = 2¹×3¹×73¹

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: 2, 5,43, 3,73

2¹×3¹×5¹×43¹×73¹ = 94170

This shows that the LCM of 430 and 438 is 94170.

The first step in determining the Least Common Multiple of 430 and 438 is to generate a list of multiples for each number.

Lets look at the multiples of these two numbers, 430 and 438:

Lets look at the first ten multiples of these numbers, 430 and 438:

430,860,1290,1720,2150,2580,3010,3440,3870,7310 are the first ten multiples of 430.

438,876,1314,1752,2190,2628,3066,3504,3942,7446 are the first ten multiples of 438.

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 430 and 438, for example, are 5160, 7310, and 7008. 94170 is the least common multiple since it is the smallest.

430 and 438 have an LCM of 94170.

The formula of LCM is LCM(a,b) = ( a × b) / GCF(a,b).
We need to calculate greatest common factor 430 and 438, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(430,438) = 2
LCM(430,438) = ( 430 × 438) / 2
LCM(430,438) = 188340 / 2
LCM(430,438) = 94170
