Given numbers are 492,259,278,359

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

The LCM of 492,259,278,359 is 6358784628.

Find LCM of 492,259,278,359 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 246 x 259 x 139 x 359 = 6358784628

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 492,259,278,359 is 6358784628.

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.

492 x 259 x 278 x 359 = 12717569256

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.

492 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 41, 82, 123, 164, 246, 492

259 : 1, 7, 37, 259

278 : 1, 2, 139, 278

359 : 1, 359

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 492,259,278,359, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

492:2x 2x 3x 41

259:7x 37

278:2x 139

359:359

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 = 12717569256/(1x2)

LCM = 12717569256/2

LCM = 6358784628

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 492,259,278,359 is 6358784628.
