Given numbers are 284,894,281,742

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

The LCM of 284,894,281,742 is 13234455948.

Find LCM of 284,894,281,742 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 142 x 447 x 281 x 371 = 13234455948

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 284,894,281,742 is 13234455948.

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.

284 x 894 x 281 x 742 = 52937823792

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.

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

894 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 149, 298, 447, 894

281 : 1, 281

742 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 53, 106, 371, 742

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 284,894,281,742, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

284:2x 2x 71

894:2x 3x 149

281:281

742:2x 7x 53

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 = 52937823792/(1x4)

LCM = 52937823792/4

LCM = 13234455948

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 284,894,281,742 is 13234455948.
