Given numbers are 257,337,964,472

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

The LCM of 257,337,964,472 is 9851946968.

Find LCM of 257,337,964,472 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 257 x 337 x 241 x 118 = 9851946968

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 257,337,964,472 is 9851946968.

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.

257 x 337 x 964 x 472 = 39407787872

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.

257 : 1, 257

337 : 1, 337

964 : 1, 2, 4, 241, 482, 964

472 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 59, 118, 236, 472

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 257,337,964,472, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

257:257

337:337

964:2x 2x 241

472:2x 2x 2x 59

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

2x 2 = 4

Therefore, the value for common factors is 4.

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 = 39407787872/(1x4)

LCM = 39407787872/4

LCM = 9851946968

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 257,337,964,472 is 9851946968.
