Given numbers are 478,372,402,201,888

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

The LCM of 478,372,402,201,888 is 440805864.

Find LCM of 478,372,402,201,888 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 3 x 67 x 239 x 31 x 1 x 1 x 74 = 440805864

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 478,372,402,201,888 is 440805864.

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 372 x 402 x 201 x 888 = 12758684927616

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

372 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 31, 62, 93, 124, 186, 372

402 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 67, 134, 201, 402

201 : 1, 3, 67, 201

888 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 37, 74, 111, 148, 222, 296, 444, 888

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 478,372,402,201,888, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

478:2x 239

372:2x 2x 3x 31

402:2x 3x 67

201:3x 67

888:2x 2x 2x 3x 37

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 3x 3x 3x 67 = 28944

Therefore, the value for common factors is 28944.

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 = 12758684927616/(1x28944)

LCM = 12758684927616/28944

LCM = 440805864

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 478,372,402,201,888 is 440805864.
