Given numbers are 737,486,686,488
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 737,486,686,488 is 29976967944.
Find LCM of 737,486,686,488 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 737, 486, 686, 488 |
| 737, 243, 343, 244 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 737 x 243 x 343 x 244 = 29976967944
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 737,486,686,488 is 29976967944.
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.
737 x 486 x 686 x 488 = 119907871776
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.
737 : 1, 11, 67, 737
486 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 27, 54, 81, 162, 243, 486
686 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 49, 98, 343, 686
488 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 61, 122, 244, 488
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 737,486,686,488, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
737:11x 67
486:2x 3x 3x 3x 3x 3
686:2x 7x 7x 7
488:2x 2x 2x 61
From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.
2x 2 = 4
Therefore, the value for common factors is 4.
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 = 119907871776/(1x4)
LCM = 119907871776/4
LCM = 29976967944
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 737,486,686,488 is 29976967944.
