Given numbers are 501,642,278,626

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

The LCM of 501,642,278,626 is 4664559498.

Find LCM of 501,642,278,626 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3 x 167 x 107 x 139 x 313 = 4664559498

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 501,642,278,626 is 4664559498.

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.

501 x 642 x 278 x 626 = 55974713976

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.

501 : 1, 3, 167, 501

642 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 107, 214, 321, 642

278 : 1, 2, 139, 278

626 : 1, 2, 313, 626

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 501,642,278,626, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

501:3x 167

642:2x 3x 107

278:2x 139

626:2x 313

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 = 55974713976/(1x12)

LCM = 55974713976/12

LCM = 4664559498

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 501,642,278,626 is 4664559498.
