Given numbers are 317,636,728,642

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

The LCM of 317,636,728,642 is 3926192088.

Find LCM of 317,636,728,642 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 3 x 317 x 53 x 182 x 107 = 3926192088

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 317,636,728,642 is 3926192088.

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.

317 x 636 x 728 x 642 = 94228610112

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.

317 : 1, 317

636 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 53, 106, 159, 212, 318, 636

728 : 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 13, 14, 26, 28, 52, 56, 91, 104, 182, 364, 728

642 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 107, 214, 321, 642

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 317,636,728,642, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

317:317

636:2x 2x 3x 53

728:2x 2x 2x 7x 13

642:2x 3x 107

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

2x 2x 2x 3 = 24

Therefore, the value for common factors is 24.

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 = 94228610112/(1x24)

LCM = 94228610112/24

LCM = 3926192088

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 317,636,728,642 is 3926192088.
