Given numbers are 468,940,879,116,420

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

The LCM of 468,940,879,116,420 is 6541500420.

Find LCM of 468,940,879,116,420 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 3 x 5 x 39 x 47 x 293 x 29 x 7 = 6541500420

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 468,940,879,116,420 is 6541500420.

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.

468 x 940 x 879 x 116 x 420 = 18839521209600

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.

468 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 13, 18, 26, 36, 39, 52, 78, 117, 156, 234, 468

940 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 47, 94, 188, 235, 470, 940

879 : 1, 3, 293, 879

116 : 1, 2, 4, 29, 58, 116

420 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10, 12, 14, 15, 20, 21, 28, 30, 35, 42, 60, 70, 84, 105, 140, 210, 420

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 468,940,879,116,420, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

468:2x 2x 3x 3x 13

940:2x 2x 5x 47

879:3x 293

116:2x 2x 29

420:2x 2x 3x 5x 7

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 2x 2x 2x 3x 3x 5 = 2880

Therefore, the value for common factors is 2880.

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 = 18839521209600/(1x2880)

LCM = 18839521209600/2880

LCM = 6541500420

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 468,940,879,116,420 is 6541500420.
