Given numbers are 342,926,236,538

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

The LCM of 342,926,236,538 is 5026218732.

Find LCM of 342,926,236,538 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 171 x 463 x 118 x 269 = 5026218732

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 342,926,236,538 is 5026218732.

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.

342 x 926 x 236 x 538 = 40209749856

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.

342 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 19, 38, 57, 114, 171, 342

926 : 1, 2, 463, 926

236 : 1, 2, 4, 59, 118, 236

538 : 1, 2, 269, 538

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 342,926,236,538, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

342:2x 3x 3x 19

926:2x 463

236:2x 2x 59

538:2x 269

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

2x 2 = 4

Therefore, the value for common factors is 4.

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 = 40209749856/(2x4)

LCM = 40209749856/8

LCM = 5026218732

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 342,926,236,538 is 5026218732.
