Given numbers are 478,424,243,185,432

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

The LCM of 478,424,243,185,432 is 9111119760.

Find LCM of 478,424,243,185,432 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 239 x 53 x 9 x 185 x 2 = 9111119760

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 478,424,243,185,432 is 9111119760.

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 424 x 243 x 185 x 432 = 3936003736320

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

424 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 53, 106, 212, 424

243 : 1, 3, 9, 27, 81, 243

185 : 1, 5, 37, 185

432 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 16, 18, 24, 27, 36, 48, 54, 72, 108, 144, 216, 432

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 478,424,243,185,432, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

478:2x 239

424:2x 2x 2x 53

243:3x 3x 3x 3x 3

185:5x 37

432:2x 2x 2x 2x 3x 3x 3

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 3 = 432

Therefore, the value for common factors is 432.

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 = 3936003736320/(1x432)

LCM = 3936003736320/432

LCM = 9111119760

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 478,424,243,185,432 is 9111119760.
