Given numbers are 285,742,989,424

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

The LCM of 285,742,989,424 is 836575320.

Find LCM of 285,742,989,424 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 53 x 285 x 7 x 989 x 4 = 836575320

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 285,742,989,424 is 836575320.

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.

285 x 742 x 989 x 424 = 88676983920

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.

285 : 1, 3, 5, 15, 19, 57, 95, 285

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

989 : 1, 23, 43, 989

424 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 53, 106, 212, 424

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 285,742,989,424, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

285:3x 5x 19

742:2x 7x 53

989:23x 43

424:2x 2x 2x 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 53 = 106

Therefore, the value for common factors is 106.

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 = 88676983920/(1x106)

LCM = 88676983920/106

LCM = 836575320

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 285,742,989,424 is 836575320.
