Given numbers are 492,300,961,721
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 492,300,961,721 is 8522436300.
Find LCM of 492,300,961,721 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 492, 300, 961, 721 |
| 2 | 246, 150, 961, 721 |
| 3 | 123, 75, 961, 721 |
| 41, 25, 961, 721 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 3 x 41 x 25 x 961 x 721 = 8522436300
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 492,300,961,721 is 8522436300.
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 300 x 961 x 721 = 102269235600
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
300 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 12, 15, 20, 25, 30, 50, 60, 75, 100, 150, 300
961 : 1, 31, 961
721 : 1, 7, 103, 721
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 492,300,961,721, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
492:2x 2x 3x 41
300:2x 2x 3x 5x 5
961:31x 31
721:7x 103
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 3 = 12
Therefore, the value for common factors is 12.
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 = 102269235600/(1x12)
LCM = 102269235600/12
LCM = 8522436300
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 492,300,961,721 is 8522436300.
