Given numbers are 448,127,438,974

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

The LCM of 448,127,438,974 is 6068129088.

Find LCM of 448,127,438,974 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 224 x 127 x 219 x 487 = 6068129088

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 448,127,438,974 is 6068129088.

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.

448 x 127 x 438 x 974 = 24272516352

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.

448 : 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 16, 28, 32, 56, 64, 112, 224, 448

127 : 1, 127

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

974 : 1, 2, 487, 974

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 448,127,438,974, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

448:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 7

127:127

438:2x 3x 73

974:2x 487

From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.

2x 2 = 4

Therefore, the value for common factors is 4.

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 = 24272516352/(1x4)

LCM = 24272516352/4

LCM = 6068129088

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 448,127,438,974 is 6068129088.
