To use brute force method, list the multiples of 470 and 477

Multiples of 470 =470,940,1410,1880,2350,2820,3290,3760,4230,4700,5170,5640,6110,6580,7050,7520,7990,

Multiples of 477 =477,954,1431,1908,2385,2862,3339,3816,4293,4770,5247,5724,6201,6678,7155,7632,8109,

Now, get the least common multiple of 470, 477 which is 224190

So, the LCM of 470, 477 is 224190.

One method for determining the LCM of 470 and 477 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 470's prime factorization:

Prime factors of 470 are 2, 5,47.

470 = 2¹×5¹×47¹

And this is 477's prime factorization:

Prime factors of 477 are 3,53.

477 = 3²×53¹

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, 5,47, 3,53

2¹×3²×5¹×47¹×53¹ = 224190

This shows that the LCM of 470 and 477 is 224190.

The first step in determining the Least Common Multiple of 470 and 477 is to generate a list of multiples for each number.

Lets look at the multiples of these two numbers, 470 and 477:

Lets look at the first ten multiples of these numbers, 470 and 477:

470,940,1410,1880,2350,2820,3290,3760,4230,7990 are the first ten multiples of 470.

477,954,1431,1908,2385,2862,3339,3816,4293,8109 are the first ten multiples of 477.

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 470 and 477, for example, are 5640, 7990, and 7632. 224190 is the least common multiple since it is the smallest.

470 and 477 have an LCM of 224190.

The formula of LCM is LCM(a,b) = ( a × b) / GCF(a,b).
We need to calculate greatest common factor 470 and 477, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(470,477) = 1
LCM(470,477) = ( 470 × 477) / 1
LCM(470,477) = 224190 / 1
LCM(470,477) = 224190
