Given numbers are 472,295,639,278

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

The LCM of 472,295,639,278 is 209617560.

Find LCM of 472,295,639,278 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 59 x 4 x 5 x 639 x 139 = 209617560

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 472,295,639,278 is 209617560.

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.

472 x 295 x 639 x 278 = 24734872080

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.

472 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 59, 118, 236, 472

295 : 1, 5, 59, 295

639 : 1, 3, 9, 71, 213, 639

278 : 1, 2, 139, 278

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 472,295,639,278, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

472:2x 2x 2x 59

295:5x 59

639:3x 3x 71

278:2x 139

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

2x 59 = 118

Therefore, the value for common factors is 118.

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 = 24734872080/(1x118)

LCM = 24734872080/118

LCM = 209617560

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 472,295,639,278 is 209617560.
