Given numbers are 293,721,169,742

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

The LCM of 293,721,169,742 is 3784386242.

Find LCM of 293,721,169,742 with Prime Factorization

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

7 x 293 x 103 x 169 x 106 = 3784386242

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 293,721,169,742 is 3784386242.

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.

293 x 721 x 169 x 742 = 26490703694

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.

293 : 1, 293

721 : 1, 7, 103, 721

169 : 1, 13, 169

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 293,721,169,742, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

293:293

721:7x 103

169:13x 13

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.

7 = 7

Therefore, the value for common factors is 7.

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 = 26490703694/(1x7)

LCM = 26490703694/7

LCM = 3784386242

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 293,721,169,742 is 3784386242.
