Given numbers are 488,946,484,148
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 488,946,484,148 is 93945368.
Find LCM of 488,946,484,148 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 488, 946, 484, 148 |
| 2 | 244, 473, 242, 74 |
| 11 | 122, 473, 121, 37 |
| 122, 43, 11, 37 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 11 x 122 x 43 x 11 x 37 = 93945368
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 488,946,484,148 is 93945368.
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.
488 x 946 x 484 x 148 = 33068769536
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.
488 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 61, 122, 244, 488
946 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 43, 86, 473, 946
484 : 1, 2, 4, 11, 22, 44, 121, 242, 484
148 : 1, 2, 4, 37, 74, 148
2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 488,946,484,148, is 2.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
488:2x 2x 2x 61
946:2x 11x 43
484:2x 2x 11x 11
148:2x 2x 37
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 11 = 176
Therefore, the value for common factors is 176.
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 = 33068769536/(2x176)
LCM = 33068769536/352
LCM = 93945368
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 488,946,484,148 is 93945368.
