LCM for 4 and 74
What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 4 and 74?
(One hundred forty-eight)
Finding LCM for 4 and 74 using GCF's of these numbers
The first method to find LCM for numbers 4 and 74 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:
LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF
GCF of numbers 4 and 74 is 2, so
LCM = (4 × 74) ÷ 2
LCM = 296 ÷ 2
LCM = 148
Finding LCM for 4 and 74 by Listing Multiples
The second method to find LCM for numbers 4 and 74 is to list out the common multiples for both nubmers and pick the first which matching:
Multiples of 4: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40, 44, 48, 52, 56, 60, 64, 68, 72, 76, 80, 84, 88, 92, 96, 100, 104, 108, 112, 116, 120, 124, 128, 132, 136, 140, 144, 148, 152, 156
Multiples of 74: 74, 148, 222, 296
So the LCM for 4 and 74 is 148
Finding LCM for 4 and 74 by Prime Factorization
Another method to find LCM for numbers 4 and 74 is to list all Prime Factors for both numbers and multiply the highest exponent prime factors:
All Prime Factors of 4: 2, 2 (exponent form: 22)
All Prime Factors of 74: 2, 37 (exponent form: 21, 371)
22 × 371 = 148
