Given numbers are 406,438,974,871

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

The LCM of 406,438,974,871 is 37715273778.

Find LCM of 406,438,974,871 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 203 x 219 x 487 x 871 = 37715273778

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 406,438,974,871 is 37715273778.

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.

406 x 438 x 974 x 871 = 150861095112

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.

406 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 29, 58, 203, 406

438 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 73, 146, 219, 438

974 : 1, 2, 487, 974

871 : 1, 13, 67, 871

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 406,438,974,871, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

406:2x 7x 29

438:2x 3x 73

974:2x 487

871:13x 67

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 = 150861095112/(1x4)

LCM = 150861095112/4

LCM = 37715273778

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 406,438,974,871 is 37715273778.
