Given numbers are 491,869,502,486

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

The LCM of 491,869,502,486 is 52048864494.

Find LCM of 491,869,502,486 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 491 x 869 x 251 x 243 = 52048864494

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 491,869,502,486 is 52048864494.

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.

491 x 869 x 502 x 486 = 104097728988

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.

491 : 1, 491

869 : 1, 11, 79, 869

502 : 1, 2, 251, 502

486 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 27, 54, 81, 162, 243, 486

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 491,869,502,486, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

491:491

869:11x 79

502:2x 251

486:2x 3x 3x 3x 3x 3

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 = 104097728988/(1x2)

LCM = 104097728988/2

LCM = 52048864494

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 491,869,502,486 is 52048864494.
