Given numbers are 634,404,942
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 634,404,942 is 60320028.
Find LCM of 634,404,942 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 634, 404, 942 |
| 317, 202, 471 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 317 x 202 x 471 = 60320028
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 634,404,942 is 60320028.
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.
634 x 404 x 942 = 241280112
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.
634 : 1, 2, 317, 634
404 : 1, 2, 4, 101, 202, 404
942 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 157, 314, 471, 942
2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 634,404,942, is 2.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
634:2x 317
404:2x 2x 101
942:2x 3x 157
From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.
2 = 2
Therefore, the value for common factors is 2.
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 = 241280112/(2x2)
LCM = 241280112/4
LCM = 60320028
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 634,404,942 is 60320028.
