Given numbers are 146,785,320,235

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

The LCM of 146,785,320,235 is 172373440.

Find LCM of 146,785,320,235 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 5 x 73 x 157 x 32 x 47 = 172373440

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 146,785,320,235 is 172373440.

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.

146 x 785 x 320 x 235 = 8618672000

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.

146 : 1, 2, 73, 146

785 : 1, 5, 157, 785

320 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, 32, 40, 64, 80, 160, 320

235 : 1, 5, 47, 235

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 146,785,320,235, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

146:2x 73

785:5x 157

320:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 5

235:5x 47

From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.

2x 5x 5 = 50

Therefore, the value for common factors is 50.

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 = 8618672000/(1x50)

LCM = 8618672000/50

LCM = 172373440

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 146,785,320,235 is 172373440.
