One method for determining the LCM of 474 and 479 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 474's prime factorization:

Prime factors of 474 are 2, 3,79.

474 = 2¹×3¹×79¹

And this is 479's prime factorization:

Prime factors of 479 are 479.

479 = 479¹

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, 3,79,479

2¹×3¹×79¹×479¹ = 227046

This shows that the LCM of 474 and 479 is 227046.

The first step in determining the Least Common Multiple of 474 and 479 is to generate a list of multiples for each number.

Lets look at the multiples of these two numbers, 474 and 479:

Lets look at the first ten multiples of these numbers, 474 and 479:

474,948,1422,1896,2370,2844,3318,3792,4266,8058 are the first ten multiples of 474.

479,958,1437,1916,2395,2874,3353,3832,4311,8143 are the first ten multiples of 479.

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 474 and 479, for example, are 5688, 8058, and 7664. 227046 is the least common multiple since it is the smallest.

474 and 479 have an LCM of 227046.

The formula of LCM is LCM(a,b) = ( a × b) / GCF(a,b).
We need to calculate greatest common factor 474 and 479, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(474,479) = 1
LCM(474,479) = ( 474 × 479) / 1
LCM(474,479) = 227046 / 1
LCM(474,479) = 227046
