Given numbers are 422,844,163,422

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

The LCM of 422,844,163,422 is 137572.

Find LCM of 422,844,163,422 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 211 x 1 x 2 x 163 x 1 = 137572

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 422,844,163,422 is 137572.

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 844 x 163 x 422 = 24499372048

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

844 : 1, 2, 4, 211, 422, 844

163 : 1, 163

422 : 1, 2, 211, 422

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 422,844,163,422, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

422:2x 211

844:2x 2x 211

163:163

422:2x 211

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 211x 211 = 178084

Therefore, the value for common factors is 178084.

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 = 24499372048/(1x178084)

LCM = 24499372048/178084

LCM = 137572

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 422,844,163,422 is 137572.
