Given numbers are 496,702,708,672

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

The LCM of 496,702,708,672 is 143803296.

Find LCM of 496,702,708,672 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 31 x 117 x 59 x 14 = 143803296

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 496,702,708,672 is 143803296.

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.

496 x 702 x 708 x 672 = 165661396992

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.

496 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 31, 62, 124, 248, 496

702 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 13, 18, 26, 27, 39, 54, 78, 117, 234, 351, 702

708 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 59, 118, 177, 236, 354, 708

672 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 12, 14, 16, 21, 24, 28, 32, 42, 48, 56, 84, 96, 112, 168, 224, 336, 672

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 496,702,708,672, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

496:2x 2x 2x 2x 31

702:2x 3x 3x 3x 13

708:2x 2x 3x 59

672:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 3x 7

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 2x 2x 2x 2x 3x 3 = 576

Therefore, the value for common factors is 576.

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 = 165661396992/(2x576)

LCM = 165661396992/1152

LCM = 143803296

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 496,702,708,672 is 143803296.
