Given numbers are 737,502,550,231
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 737,502,550,231 is 194236350.
Find LCM of 737,502,550,231 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 737, 502, 550, 231 |
| 11 | 737, 251, 275, 231 |
| 67, 251, 25, 21 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 11 x 67 x 251 x 25 x 21 = 194236350
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 737,502,550,231 is 194236350.
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 502 x 550 x 231 = 47005196700
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
502 : 1, 2, 251, 502
550 : 1, 2, 5, 10, 11, 22, 25, 50, 55, 110, 275, 550
231 : 1, 3, 7, 11, 21, 33, 77, 231
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 737,502,550,231, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
737:11x 67
502:2x 251
550:2x 5x 5x 11
231:3x 7x 11
From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.
2x 11x 11 = 242
Therefore, the value for common factors is 242.
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 = 47005196700/(1x242)
LCM = 47005196700/242
LCM = 194236350
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 737,502,550,231 is 194236350.
