Given numbers are 494,551,228,281

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

The LCM of 494,551,228,281 is 24153636.

Find LCM of 494,551,228,281 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 19 x 13 x 29 x 6 x 281 = 24153636

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 494,551,228,281 is 24153636.

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.

494 x 551 x 228 x 281 = 17438925192

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.

494 : 1, 2, 13, 19, 26, 38, 247, 494

551 : 1, 19, 29, 551

228 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 19, 38, 57, 76, 114, 228

281 : 1, 281

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 494,551,228,281, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

494:2x 13x 19

551:19x 29

228:2x 2x 3x 19

281:281

From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.

2x 19x 19 = 722

Therefore, the value for common factors is 722.

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 = 17438925192/(1x722)

LCM = 17438925192/722

LCM = 24153636

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 494,551,228,281 is 24153636.
