Given numbers are 446,638,156,959

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

The LCM of 446,638,156,959 is 10642379748.

Find LCM of 446,638,156,959 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 223 x 319 x 78 x 959 = 10642379748

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 446,638,156,959 is 10642379748.

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 638 x 156 x 959 = 42569518992

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

638 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 29, 58, 319, 638

156 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 13, 26, 39, 52, 78, 156

959 : 1, 7, 137, 959

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 446,638,156,959, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

446:2x 223

638:2x 11x 29

156:2x 2x 3x 13

959:7x 137

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 = 42569518992/(1x4)

LCM = 42569518992/4

LCM = 10642379748

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 446,638,156,959 is 10642379748.
