Given numbers are 368,958,940,282,658

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

The LCM of 368,958,940,282,658 is 869902320.

Find LCM of 368,958,940,282,658 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 47 x 92 x 479 x 5 x 3 x 7 = 869902320

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 368,958,940,282,658 is 869902320.

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.

368 x 958 x 940 x 282 x 658 = 61491655196160

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.

368 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 23, 46, 92, 184, 368

958 : 1, 2, 479, 958

940 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 47, 94, 188, 235, 470, 940

282 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 47, 94, 141, 282

658 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 47, 94, 329, 658

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 368,958,940,282,658, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

368:2x 2x 2x 2x 23

958:2x 479

940:2x 2x 5x 47

282:2x 3x 47

658:2x 7x 47

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 2x 47x 47 = 35344

Therefore, the value for common factors is 35344.

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 = 61491655196160/(2x35344)

LCM = 61491655196160/70688

LCM = 869902320

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 368,958,940,282,658 is 869902320.
