Given numbers are 462,689,473

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

The LCM of 462,689,473 is 13687674.

Find LCM of 462,689,473 with Prime Factorization

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

11 x 42 x 689 x 43 = 13687674

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 462,689,473 is 13687674.

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.

462 x 689 x 473 = 150564414

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.

462 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 11, 14, 21, 22, 33, 42, 66, 77, 154, 231, 462

689 : 1, 13, 53, 689

473 : 1, 11, 43, 473

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 462,689,473, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

462:2x 3x 7x 11

689:13x 53

473:11x 43

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

11 = 11

Therefore, the value for common factors is 11.

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 = 150564414/(1x11)

LCM = 150564414/11

LCM = 13687674

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 462,689,473 is 13687674.

Here are some samples of LCM of two or more Numbers calculations.
