Given numbers are 472,759,978

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

The LCM of 472,759,978 is 58394424.

Find LCM of 472,759,978 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3 x 236 x 253 x 163 = 58394424

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 472,759,978 is 58394424.

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 759 x 978 = 350366544

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

759 : 1, 3, 11, 23, 33, 69, 253, 759

978 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 163, 326, 489, 978

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 472,759,978, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

472:2x 2x 2x 59

759:3x 11x 23

978:2x 3x 163

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

2x 3 = 6

Therefore, the value for common factors is 6.

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 = 350366544/(1x6)

LCM = 350366544/6

LCM = 58394424

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 472,759,978 is 58394424.
