Given numbers are 466,974,556,542

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

The LCM of 466,974,556,542 is 17097356396.

Find LCM of 466,974,556,542 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 233 x 487 x 278 x 271 = 17097356396

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 466,974,556,542 is 17097356396.

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.

466 x 974 x 556 x 542 = 136778851168

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.

466 : 1, 2, 233, 466

974 : 1, 2, 487, 974

556 : 1, 2, 4, 139, 278, 556

542 : 1, 2, 271, 542

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 466,974,556,542, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

466:2x 233

974:2x 487

556:2x 2x 139

542:2x 271

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 = 136778851168/(2x4)

LCM = 136778851168/8

LCM = 17097356396

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 466,974,556,542 is 17097356396.
