Given numbers are 482,971,361,942

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

The LCM of 482,971,361,942 is 79578248682.

Find LCM of 482,971,361,942 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 241 x 971 x 361 x 471 = 79578248682

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 482,971,361,942 is 79578248682.

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.

482 x 971 x 361 x 942 = 159156497364

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.

482 : 1, 2, 241, 482

971 : 1, 971

361 : 1, 19, 361

942 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 157, 314, 471, 942

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 482,971,361,942, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

482:2x 241

971:971

361:19x 19

942:2x 3x 157

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

2 = 2

Therefore, the value for common factors is 2.

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 = 159156497364/(1x2)

LCM = 159156497364/2

LCM = 79578248682

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 482,971,361,942 is 79578248682.
