Given numbers are 446,386,386,252

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

The LCM of 446,386,386,252 is 10845828.

Find LCM of 446,386,386,252 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 193 x 223 x 1 x 1 x 126 = 10845828

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 446,386,386,252 is 10845828.

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.

446 x 386 x 386 x 252 = 16745958432

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.

446 : 1, 2, 223, 446

386 : 1, 2, 193, 386

386 : 1, 2, 193, 386

252 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 9, 12, 14, 18, 21, 28, 36, 42, 63, 84, 126, 252

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 446,386,386,252, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

446:2x 223

386:2x 193

386:2x 193

252:2x 2x 3x 3x 7

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 193 = 772

Therefore, the value for common factors is 772.

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 = 16745958432/(2x772)

LCM = 16745958432/1544

LCM = 10845828

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 446,386,386,252 is 10845828.
