Given numbers are 446,394,261,788

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

The LCM of 446,394,261,788 is 45863964.

Find LCM of 446,394,261,788 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 197 x 223 x 1 x 261 x 2 = 45863964

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 446,394,261,788 is 45863964.

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.

446 x 394 x 261 x 788 = 36140803632

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.

446 : 1, 2, 223, 446

394 : 1, 2, 197, 394

261 : 1, 3, 9, 29, 87, 261

788 : 1, 2, 4, 197, 394, 788

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 446,394,261,788, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

446:2x 223

394:2x 197

261:3x 3x 29

788:2x 2x 197

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 197 = 788

Therefore, the value for common factors is 788.

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 = 36140803632/(1x788)

LCM = 36140803632/788

LCM = 45863964

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 446,394,261,788 is 45863964.
