Given numbers are 327,327,257,742

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

The LCM of 327,327,257,742 is 62356938.

Find LCM of 327,327,257,742 with Prime Factorization

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

3 x 109 x 1 x 1 x 257 x 742 = 62356938

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 327,327,257,742 is 62356938.

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.

327 x 327 x 257 x 742 = 20390718726

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.

327 : 1, 3, 109, 327

327 : 1, 3, 109, 327

257 : 1, 257

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 327,327,257,742, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

327:3x 109

327:3x 109

257:257

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.

3x 109 = 327

Therefore, the value for common factors is 327.

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 = 20390718726/(1x327)

LCM = 20390718726/327

LCM = 62356938

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 327,327,257,742 is 62356938.
