Given numbers are 918,448,280,478
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 918,448,280,478 is 245730240.
Find LCM of 918,448,280,478 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 918, 448, 280, 478 |
| 2 | 459, 224, 140, 239 |
| 2 | 459, 112, 70, 239 |
| 7 | 459, 56, 35, 239 |
| 459, 8, 5, 239 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 2 x 7 x 459 x 8 x 5 x 239 = 245730240
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 918,448,280,478 is 245730240.
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.
918 x 448 x 280 x 478 = 55043573760
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.
918 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 17, 18, 27, 34, 51, 54, 102, 153, 306, 459, 918
448 : 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 16, 28, 32, 56, 64, 112, 224, 448
280 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 8, 10, 14, 20, 28, 35, 40, 56, 70, 140, 280
478 : 1, 2, 239, 478
2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 918,448,280,478, is 2.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
918:2x 3x 3x 3x 17
448:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 7
280:2x 2x 2x 5x 7
478:2x 239
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 7 = 112
Therefore, the value for common factors is 112.
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 = 55043573760/(2x112)
LCM = 55043573760/224
LCM = 245730240
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 918,448,280,478 is 245730240.
