Given numbers are 492,358,470,179

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

The LCM of 492,358,470,179 is 20695980.

Find LCM of 492,358,470,179 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 179 x 246 x 1 x 235 x 1 = 20695980

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 492,358,470,179 is 20695980.

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 358 x 470 x 179 = 14818321680

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

358 : 1, 2, 179, 358

470 : 1, 2, 5, 10, 47, 94, 235, 470

179 : 1, 179

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 492,358,470,179, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

492:2x 2x 3x 41

358:2x 179

470:2x 5x 47

179:179

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 179 = 716

Therefore, the value for common factors is 716.

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 = 14818321680/(1x716)

LCM = 14818321680/716

LCM = 20695980

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 492,358,470,179 is 20695980.
