Given numbers are 402,542,862,829

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

The LCM of 402,542,862,829 is 38924867658.

Find LCM of 402,542,862,829 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 201 x 271 x 431 x 829 = 38924867658

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 402,542,862,829 is 38924867658.

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.

402 x 542 x 862 x 829 = 155699470632

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.

402 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 67, 134, 201, 402

542 : 1, 2, 271, 542

862 : 1, 2, 431, 862

829 : 1, 829

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 402,542,862,829, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

402:2x 3x 67

542:2x 271

862:2x 431

829:829

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 = 155699470632/(1x4)

LCM = 155699470632/4

LCM = 38924867658

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 402,542,862,829 is 38924867658.
