Given numbers are 478,306,131,856

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

The LCM of 478,306,131,856 is 4100477112.

Find LCM of 478,306,131,856 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 239 x 153 x 131 x 428 = 4100477112

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 478,306,131,856 is 4100477112.

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.

478 x 306 x 131 x 856 = 16401908448

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.

478 : 1, 2, 239, 478

306 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 17, 18, 34, 51, 102, 153, 306

131 : 1, 131

856 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 107, 214, 428, 856

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 478,306,131,856, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

478:2x 239

306:2x 3x 3x 17

131:131

856:2x 2x 2x 107

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

2x 2 = 4

Therefore, the value for common factors is 4.

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 = 16401908448/(1x4)

LCM = 16401908448/4

LCM = 4100477112

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 478,306,131,856 is 4100477112.
