Given numbers are 232,468,728,422

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

The LCM of 232,468,728,422 is 40091688.

Find LCM of 232,468,728,422 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 2 x 13 x 29 x 9 x 7 x 211 = 40091688

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 232,468,728,422 is 40091688.

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.

232 x 468 x 728 x 422 = 33356284416

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.

232 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 29, 58, 116, 232

468 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 13, 18, 26, 36, 39, 52, 78, 117, 156, 234, 468

728 : 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 13, 14, 26, 28, 52, 56, 91, 104, 182, 364, 728

422 : 1, 2, 211, 422

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 232,468,728,422, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

232:2x 2x 2x 29

468:2x 2x 3x 3x 13

728:2x 2x 2x 7x 13

422:2x 211

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 2x 13 = 416

Therefore, the value for common factors is 416.

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 = 33356284416/(2x416)

LCM = 33356284416/832

LCM = 40091688

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 232,468,728,422 is 40091688.
