Given numbers are 346,521,554,742

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

The LCM of 346,521,554,742 is 18525396022.

Find LCM of 346,521,554,742 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 173 x 521 x 277 x 371 = 18525396022

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 346,521,554,742 is 18525396022.

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.

346 x 521 x 554 x 742 = 74101584088

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.

346 : 1, 2, 173, 346

521 : 1, 521

554 : 1, 2, 277, 554

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 346,521,554,742, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

346:2x 173

521:521

554:2x 277

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.

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 = 74101584088/(1x4)

LCM = 74101584088/4

LCM = 18525396022

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 346,521,554,742 is 18525396022.
