Given numbers are 262,946,657,724

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

The LCM of 262,946,657,724 is 29473816284.

Find LCM of 262,946,657,724 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 131 x 473 x 657 x 362 = 29473816284

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 262,946,657,724 is 29473816284.

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.

262 x 946 x 657 x 724 = 117895265136

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.

262 : 1, 2, 131, 262

946 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 43, 86, 473, 946

657 : 1, 3, 9, 73, 219, 657

724 : 1, 2, 4, 181, 362, 724

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 262,946,657,724, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

262:2x 131

946:2x 11x 43

657:3x 3x 73

724:2x 2x 181

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 = 117895265136/(1x4)

LCM = 117895265136/4

LCM = 29473816284

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 262,946,657,724 is 29473816284.
