Given numbers are 426,422,949,231

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

The LCM of 426,422,949,231 is 6568239678.

Find LCM of 426,422,949,231 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3 x 71 x 211 x 949 x 77 = 6568239678

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 426,422,949,231 is 6568239678.

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.

426 x 422 x 949 x 231 = 39409438068

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.

426 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 71, 142, 213, 426

422 : 1, 2, 211, 422

949 : 1, 13, 73, 949

231 : 1, 3, 7, 11, 21, 33, 77, 231

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 426,422,949,231, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

426:2x 3x 71

422:2x 211

949:13x 73

231:3x 7x 11

From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.

2x 3 = 6

Therefore, the value for common factors is 6.

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 = 39409438068/(1x6)

LCM = 39409438068/6

LCM = 6568239678

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 426,422,949,231 is 6568239678.
