Given numbers are 479,782,638,261

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

The LCM of 479,782,638,261 is 1075413438.

Find LCM of 479,782,638,261 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 29 x 479 x 391 x 11 x 9 = 1075413438

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 479,782,638,261 is 1075413438.

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.

479 x 782 x 638 x 261 = 62373979404

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.

479 : 1, 479

782 : 1, 2, 17, 23, 34, 46, 391, 782

638 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 29, 58, 319, 638

261 : 1, 3, 9, 29, 87, 261

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 479,782,638,261, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

479:479

782:2x 17x 23

638:2x 11x 29

261:3x 3x 29

From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.

2x 29 = 58

Therefore, the value for common factors is 58.

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 = 62373979404/(1x58)

LCM = 62373979404/58

LCM = 1075413438

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 479,782,638,261 is 1075413438.
