Given numbers are 486,7731

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

The LCM of 486,7731 is 417474.

Find LCM of 486,7731 with Prime Factorization

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

3 x 3 x 54 x 859 = 417474

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 486,7731 is 417474.

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.

486 x 7731 = 3757266

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.

486 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 27, 54, 81, 162, 243, 486

7731 : 1, 3, 9, 859, 2577, 7731

9 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 486,7731, is 9.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

486:2x 3x 3x 3x 3x 3

7731:3x 3x 859

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

= 1

Therefore, the value for common factors is 1.

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 = 3757266/(9x1)

LCM = 3757266/9

LCM = 417474

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 486,7731 is 417474.
