Given numbers are 442,334,196,946,473

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

The LCM of 442,334,196,946,473 is 3421574156.

Find LCM of 442,334,196,946,473 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 11 x 43 x 221 x 167 x 98 x 1 x 1 = 3421574156

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 442,334,196,946,473 is 3421574156.

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.

442 x 334 x 196 x 946 x 473 = 12947236606304

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.

442 : 1, 2, 13, 17, 26, 34, 221, 442

334 : 1, 2, 167, 334

196 : 1, 2, 4, 7, 14, 28, 49, 98, 196

946 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 43, 86, 473, 946

473 : 1, 11, 43, 473

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 442,334,196,946,473, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

442:2x 13x 17

334:2x 167

196:2x 2x 7x 7

946:2x 11x 43

473:11x 43

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 2x 11x 43 = 3784

Therefore, the value for common factors is 3784.

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 = 12947236606304/(1x3784)

LCM = 12947236606304/3784

LCM = 3421574156

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 442,334,196,946,473 is 3421574156.
