Given numbers are 473,232,786,687

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

The LCM of 473,232,786,687 is 9875910792.

Find LCM of 473,232,786,687 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3 x 473 x 116 x 131 x 229 = 9875910792

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 473,232,786,687 is 9875910792.

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.

473 x 232 x 786 x 687 = 59255464752

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.

473 : 1, 11, 43, 473

232 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 29, 58, 116, 232

786 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 131, 262, 393, 786

687 : 1, 3, 229, 687

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 473,232,786,687, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

473:11x 43

232:2x 2x 2x 29

786:2x 3x 131

687:3x 229

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 = 59255464752/(1x6)

LCM = 59255464752/6

LCM = 9875910792

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 473,232,786,687 is 9875910792.
