Given numbers are 462,786,336,286

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

The LCM of 462,786,336,286 is 6294288.

Find LCM of 462,786,336,286 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3 x 7 x 11 x 1 x 131 x 8 x 13 = 6294288

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 462,786,336,286 is 6294288.

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.

462 x 786 x 336 x 286 = 34895532672

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.

462 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 11, 14, 21, 22, 33, 42, 66, 77, 154, 231, 462

786 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 131, 262, 393, 786

336 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 12, 14, 16, 21, 24, 28, 42, 48, 56, 84, 112, 168, 336

286 : 1, 2, 11, 13, 22, 26, 143, 286

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 462,786,336,286, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

462:2x 3x 7x 11

786:2x 3x 131

336:2x 2x 2x 2x 3x 7

286:2x 11x 13

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 3x 3x 7x 11 = 2772

Therefore, the value for common factors is 2772.

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 = 34895532672/(2x2772)

LCM = 34895532672/5544

LCM = 6294288

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 462,786,336,286 is 6294288.
