Given numbers are 422,168,524,560
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 422,168,524,560 is 46436880.
Find LCM of 422,168,524,560 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 422, 168, 524, 560 |
| 2 | 211, 84, 262, 280 |
| 2 | 211, 42, 131, 140 |
| 7 | 211, 21, 131, 70 |
| 211, 3, 131, 10 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 2 x 7 x 211 x 3 x 131 x 10 = 46436880
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 422,168,524,560 is 46436880.
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.
422 x 168 x 524 x 560 = 20803722240
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.
422 : 1, 2, 211, 422
168 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 12, 14, 21, 24, 28, 42, 56, 84, 168
524 : 1, 2, 4, 131, 262, 524
560 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 8, 10, 14, 16, 20, 28, 35, 40, 56, 70, 80, 112, 140, 280, 560
2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 422,168,524,560, is 2.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
422:2x 211
168:2x 2x 2x 3x 7
524:2x 2x 131
560:2x 2x 2x 2x 5x 7
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 2x 7 = 224
Therefore, the value for common factors is 224.
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 = 20803722240/(2x224)
LCM = 20803722240/448
LCM = 46436880
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 422,168,524,560 is 46436880.
