Given numbers are 498,942,235,228

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

The LCM of 498,942,235,228 is 698200980.

Find LCM of 498,942,235,228 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3 x 83 x 157 x 235 x 38 = 698200980

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 498,942,235,228 is 698200980.

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.

498 x 942 x 235 x 228 = 25135235280

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.

498 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 83, 166, 249, 498

942 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 157, 314, 471, 942

235 : 1, 5, 47, 235

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

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 498,942,235,228, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

498:2x 3x 83

942:2x 3x 157

235:5x 47

228:2x 2x 3x 19

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 3x 3 = 36

Therefore, the value for common factors is 36.

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 = 25135235280/(1x36)

LCM = 25135235280/36

LCM = 698200980

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 498,942,235,228 is 698200980.
