Given numbers are 472,468,880,236

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

The LCM of 472,468,880,236 is 6074640.

Find LCM of 472,468,880,236 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 2 x 59 x 1 x 117 x 110 x 1 = 6074640

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 472,468,880,236 is 6074640.

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 468 x 880 x 236 = 45875681280

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

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

880 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 11, 16, 20, 22, 40, 44, 55, 80, 88, 110, 176, 220, 440, 880

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

4 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 472,468,880,236, is 4.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

472:2x 2x 2x 59

468:2x 2x 3x 3x 13

880:2x 2x 2x 2x 5x 11

236:2x 2x 59

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 59 = 1888

Therefore, the value for common factors is 1888.

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 = 45875681280/(4x1888)

LCM = 45875681280/7552

LCM = 6074640

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 472,468,880,236 is 6074640.
