Given numbers are 438,497,568,485

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

The LCM of 438,497,568,485 is 422310840.

Find LCM of 438,497,568,485 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 71 x 219 x 7 x 4 x 485 = 422310840

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 438,497,568,485 is 422310840.

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.

438 x 497 x 568 x 485 = 59968139280

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.

438 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 73, 146, 219, 438

497 : 1, 7, 71, 497

568 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 71, 142, 284, 568

485 : 1, 5, 97, 485

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 438,497,568,485, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

438:2x 3x 73

497:7x 71

568:2x 2x 2x 71

485:5x 97

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

2x 71 = 142

Therefore, the value for common factors is 142.

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 = 59968139280/(1x142)

LCM = 59968139280/142

LCM = 422310840

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 438,497,568,485 is 422310840.
