Given numbers are 232,480,215,530,940

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

The LCM of 232,480,215,530,940 is 1491012960.

Find LCM of 232,480,215,530,940 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 2 x 5 x 29 x 12 x 43 x 53 x 47 = 1491012960

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 232,480,215,530,940 is 1491012960.

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 480 x 215 x 530 x 940 = 11928103680000

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

480 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 16, 20, 24, 30, 32, 40, 48, 60, 80, 96, 120, 160, 240, 480

215 : 1, 5, 43, 215

530 : 1, 2, 5, 10, 53, 106, 265, 530

940 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 47, 94, 188, 235, 470, 940

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 232,480,215,530,940, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

232:2x 2x 2x 29

480:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 3x 5

215:5x 43

530:2x 5x 53

940:2x 2x 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 2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 5x 5x 5 = 8000

Therefore, the value for common factors is 8000.

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 = 11928103680000/(1x8000)

LCM = 11928103680000/8000

LCM = 1491012960

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 232,480,215,530,940 is 1491012960.
