Given numbers are 438,237,386,368,711

The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.

The LCM of 438,237,386,368,711 is 3686358672.

Find LCM of 438,237,386,368,711 with Prime Factorization

Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.

2 x 3 x 79 x 73 x 1 x 193 x 184 x 3 = 3686358672

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 438,237,386,368,711 is 3686358672.

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.

438 x 237 x 386 x 368 x 711 = 10484004063168

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.

438 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 73, 146, 219, 438

237 : 1, 3, 79, 237

386 : 1, 2, 193, 386

368 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 23, 46, 92, 184, 368

711 : 1, 3, 9, 79, 237, 711

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 438,237,386,368,711, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

438:2x 3x 73

237:3x 79

386:2x 193

368:2x 2x 2x 2x 23

711:3x 3x 79

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 3x 3x 79 = 2844

Therefore, the value for common factors is 2844.

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 = 10484004063168/(1x2844)

LCM = 10484004063168/2844

LCM = 3686358672

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 438,237,386,368,711 is 3686358672.
