Given numbers are 470,344,566,261

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

The LCM of 470,344,566,261 is 5971084920.

Find LCM of 470,344,566,261 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 235 x 172 x 283 x 261 = 5971084920

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 470,344,566,261 is 5971084920.

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.

470 x 344 x 566 x 261 = 23884339680

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.

470 : 1, 2, 5, 10, 47, 94, 235, 470

344 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 43, 86, 172, 344

566 : 1, 2, 283, 566

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

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 470,344,566,261, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

470:2x 5x 47

344:2x 2x 2x 43

566:2x 283

261:3x 3x 29

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 = 23884339680/(1x4)

LCM = 23884339680/4

LCM = 5971084920

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 470,344,566,261 is 5971084920.
