Given numbers are 478,740,437,204

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

The LCM of 478,740,437,204 is 3941678820.

Find LCM of 478,740,437,204 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 239 x 185 x 437 x 51 = 3941678820

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 478,740,437,204 is 3941678820.

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 740 x 437 x 204 = 31533430560

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

740 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 37, 74, 148, 185, 370, 740

437 : 1, 19, 23, 437

204 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 17, 34, 51, 68, 102, 204

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 478,740,437,204, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

478:2x 239

740:2x 2x 5x 37

437:19x 23

204:2x 2x 3x 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 2 = 8

Therefore, the value for common factors is 8.

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 = 31533430560/(1x8)

LCM = 31533430560/8

LCM = 3941678820

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 478,740,437,204 is 3941678820.
