Given numbers are 437,668,161,917

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

The LCM of 437,668,161,917 is 267686972.

Find LCM of 437,668,161,917 with Prime Factorization

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

7 x 23 x 19 x 668 x 1 x 131 = 267686972

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 437,668,161,917 is 267686972.

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.

437 x 668 x 161 x 917 = 43097602492

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.

437 : 1, 19, 23, 437

668 : 1, 2, 4, 167, 334, 668

161 : 1, 7, 23, 161

917 : 1, 7, 131, 917

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 437,668,161,917, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

437:19x 23

668:2x 2x 167

161:7x 23

917:7x 131

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

7x 23 = 161

Therefore, the value for common factors is 161.

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 = 43097602492/(1x161)

LCM = 43097602492/161

LCM = 267686972

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 437,668,161,917 is 267686972.
