Given numbers are 471,238,493,204

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

The LCM of 471,238,493,204 is 6501684.

Find LCM of 471,238,493,204 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3 x 17 x 157 x 7 x 29 x 2 = 6501684

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 471,238,493,204 is 6501684.

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.

471 x 238 x 493 x 204 = 11273920056

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.

471 : 1, 3, 157, 471

238 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 17, 34, 119, 238

493 : 1, 17, 29, 493

204 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 17, 34, 51, 68, 102, 204

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 471,238,493,204, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

471:3x 157

238:2x 7x 17

493:17x 29

204:2x 2x 3x 17

From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.

2x 3x 17x 17 = 1734

Therefore, the value for common factors is 1734.

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 = 11273920056/(1x1734)

LCM = 11273920056/1734

LCM = 6501684

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 471,238,493,204 is 6501684.
