Given numbers are 318,422,879,436

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

The LCM of 318,422,879,436 is 4285817652.

Find LCM of 318,422,879,436 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3 x 53 x 211 x 293 x 218 = 4285817652

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 318,422,879,436 is 4285817652.

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.

318 x 422 x 879 x 436 = 51429811824

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.

318 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 53, 106, 159, 318

422 : 1, 2, 211, 422

879 : 1, 3, 293, 879

436 : 1, 2, 4, 109, 218, 436

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 318,422,879,436, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

318:2x 3x 53

422:2x 211

879:3x 293

436:2x 2x 109

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 3 = 12

Therefore, the value for common factors is 12.

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 = 51429811824/(1x12)

LCM = 51429811824/12

LCM = 4285817652

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 318,422,879,436 is 4285817652.
