Given numbers are 179,709,742,878

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

The LCM of 179,709,742,878 is 41339735318.

Find LCM of 179,709,742,878 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 179 x 709 x 371 x 439 = 41339735318

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 179,709,742,878 is 41339735318.

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.

179 x 709 x 742 x 878 = 82679470636

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.

179 : 1, 179

709 : 1, 709

742 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 53, 106, 371, 742

878 : 1, 2, 439, 878

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 179,709,742,878, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

179:179

709:709

742:2x 7x 53

878:2x 439

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

2 = 2

Therefore, the value for common factors is 2.

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 = 82679470636/(1x2)

LCM = 82679470636/2

LCM = 41339735318

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 179,709,742,878 is 41339735318.
