Given numbers are 438,974,424,562

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

The LCM of 438,974,424,562 is 12707065032.

Find LCM of 438,974,424,562 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 219 x 487 x 212 x 281 = 12707065032

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 438,974,424,562 is 12707065032.

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 974 x 424 x 562 = 101656520256

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

974 : 1, 2, 487, 974

424 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 53, 106, 212, 424

562 : 1, 2, 281, 562

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 438,974,424,562, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

438:2x 3x 73

974:2x 487

424:2x 2x 2x 53

562:2x 281

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

2x 2 = 4

Therefore, the value for common factors is 4.

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 = 101656520256/(2x4)

LCM = 101656520256/8

LCM = 12707065032

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 438,974,424,562 is 12707065032.
