Given numbers are 472,136,187,128
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 472,136,187,128 is 1412224.
Find LCM of 472,136,187,128 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 472, 136, 187, 128 |
| 2 | 236, 68, 187, 64 |
| 2 | 118, 34, 187, 32 |
| 17 | 59, 17, 187, 16 |
| 59, 1, 11, 16 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 2 x 17 x 59 x 1 x 11 x 16 = 1412224
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 472,136,187,128 is 1412224.
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.
472 x 136 x 187 x 128 = 1536499712
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.
472 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 59, 118, 236, 472
136 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 17, 34, 68, 136
187 : 1, 11, 17, 187
128 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 472,136,187,128, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
472:2x 2x 2x 59
136:2x 2x 2x 17
187:11x 17
128:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 2
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 2x 2x 2x 2x 17 = 1088
Therefore, the value for common factors is 1088.
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 = 1536499712/(1x1088)
LCM = 1536499712/1088
LCM = 1412224
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 472,136,187,128 is 1412224.
