Given numbers are 478,692,272,357

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

The LCM of 478,692,272,357 is 236174064.

Find LCM of 478,692,272,357 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 17 x 239 x 173 x 4 x 21 = 236174064

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 478,692,272,357 is 236174064.

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 692 x 272 x 357 = 32119672704

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

692 : 1, 2, 4, 173, 346, 692

272 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 17, 34, 68, 136, 272

357 : 1, 3, 7, 17, 21, 51, 119, 357

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 478,692,272,357, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

478:2x 239

692:2x 2x 173

272:2x 2x 2x 2x 17

357:3x 7x 17

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 17 = 136

Therefore, the value for common factors is 136.

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 = 32119672704/(1x136)

LCM = 32119672704/136

LCM = 236174064

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 478,692,272,357 is 236174064.
