Given numbers are 738,408,352,473,372

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

The LCM of 738,408,352,473,372 is 2943391968.

Find LCM of 738,408,352,473,372 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 11 x 123 x 17 x 4 x 43 x 31 = 2943391968

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 738,408,352,473,372 is 2943391968.

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.

738 x 408 x 352 x 473 x 372 = 18649331509248

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.

738 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 41, 82, 123, 246, 369, 738

408 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 17, 24, 34, 51, 68, 102, 136, 204, 408

352 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 11, 16, 22, 32, 44, 88, 176, 352

473 : 1, 11, 43, 473

372 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 31, 62, 93, 124, 186, 372

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 738,408,352,473,372, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

738:2x 3x 3x 41

408:2x 2x 2x 3x 17

352:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 11

473:11x 43

372:2x 2x 3x 31

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 2x 2x 3x 3x 11 = 6336

Therefore, the value for common factors is 6336.

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 = 18649331509248/(1x6336)

LCM = 18649331509248/6336

LCM = 2943391968

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 738,408,352,473,372 is 2943391968.
