Given numbers are 420,726,542,878

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

The LCM of 420,726,542,878 is 6046004580.

Find LCM of 420,726,542,878 with Prime Factorization


2 420, 726, 542, 878
3 210, 363, 271, 439
70, 121, 271, 439

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

2 x 3 x 70 x 121 x 271 x 439 = 6046004580

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 420,726,542,878 is 6046004580.

LCM Formula to Find Lowest Common Multiple of 420,726,542,878

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.

420 x 726 x 542 x 878 = 145104109920

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.

420 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10, 12, 14, 15, 20, 21, 28, 30, 35, 42, 60, 70, 84, 105, 140, 210, 420

726 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 11, 22, 33, 66, 121, 242, 363, 726

542 : 1, 2, 271, 542

878 : 1, 2, 439, 878

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 420,726,542,878, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

420:2x 2x 3x 5x 7

726:2x 3x 11x 11

542:2x 271

878:2x 439

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 3 = 12

Therefore, the value for common factors is 12.

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 = 145104109920/(2x12)

LCM = 145104109920/24

LCM = 6046004580

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 420,726,542,878 is 6046004580.
