Given numbers are 226,148,694,284,421

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

The LCM of 226,148,694,284,421 is 173464288148.

Find LCM of 226,148,694,284,421 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 113 x 37 x 347 x 71 x 421 = 173464288148

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 226,148,694,284,421 is 173464288148.

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.

226 x 148 x 694 x 284 x 421 = 2775428610368

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.

226 : 1, 2, 113, 226

148 : 1, 2, 4, 37, 74, 148

694 : 1, 2, 347, 694

284 : 1, 2, 4, 71, 142, 284

421 : 1, 421

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 226,148,694,284,421, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

226:2x 113

148:2x 2x 37

694:2x 347

284:2x 2x 71

421:421

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 2 = 16

Therefore, the value for common factors is 16.

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 = 2775428610368/(1x16)

LCM = 2775428610368/16

LCM = 173464288148

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 226,148,694,284,421 is 173464288148.
