Given numbers are 482,972,596,434

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

The LCM of 482,972,596,434 is 7574069916.

Find LCM of 482,972,596,434 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 241 x 243 x 149 x 217 = 7574069916

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 482,972,596,434 is 7574069916.

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 972 x 596 x 434 = 121185118656

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

972 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 27, 36, 54, 81, 108, 162, 243, 324, 486, 972

596 : 1, 2, 4, 149, 298, 596

434 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 31, 62, 217, 434

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 482,972,596,434, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

482:2x 241

972:2x 2x 3x 3x 3x 3x 3

596:2x 2x 149

434:2x 7x 31

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 = 121185118656/(2x8)

LCM = 121185118656/16

LCM = 7574069916

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 482,972,596,434 is 7574069916.
