Given numbers are 478,478,771,742

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

The LCM of 478,478,771,742 is 136727598.

Find LCM of 478,478,771,742 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 239 x 1 x 1 x 771 x 371 = 136727598

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 478,478,771,742 is 136727598.

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 478 x 771 x 742 = 130711583688

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

478 : 1, 2, 239, 478

771 : 1, 3, 257, 771

742 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 53, 106, 371, 742

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 478,478,771,742, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

478:2x 239

478:2x 239

771:3x 257

742:2x 7x 53

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 239 = 956

Therefore, the value for common factors is 956.

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 = 130711583688/(1x956)

LCM = 130711583688/956

LCM = 136727598

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 478,478,771,742 is 136727598.
