Given numbers are 874,286,238,187
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 874,286,238,187 is 14872858.
Find LCM of 874,286,238,187 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 874, 286, 238, 187 |
| 11 | 437, 143, 119, 187 |
| 17 | 437, 13, 119, 17 |
| 437, 13, 7, 1 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 11 x 17 x 437 x 13 x 7 x 1 = 14872858
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 874,286,238,187 is 14872858.
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.
874 x 286 x 238 x 187 = 11124897784
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.
874 : 1, 2, 19, 23, 38, 46, 437, 874
286 : 1, 2, 11, 13, 22, 26, 143, 286
238 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 17, 34, 119, 238
187 : 1, 11, 17, 187
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 874,286,238,187, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
874:2x 19x 23
286:2x 11x 13
238:2x 7x 17
187:11x 17
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 11x 17 = 748
Therefore, the value for common factors is 748.
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 = 11124897784/(1x748)
LCM = 11124897784/748
LCM = 14872858
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 874,286,238,187 is 14872858.
