Given numbers are 521,234,343,962

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

The LCM of 521,234,343,962 is 1547210574.

Find LCM of 521,234,343,962 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 13 x 521 x 9 x 343 x 37 = 1547210574

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 521,234,343,962 is 1547210574.

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.

521 x 234 x 343 x 962 = 40227474924

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.

521 : 1, 521

234 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 13, 18, 26, 39, 78, 117, 234

343 : 1, 7, 49, 343

962 : 1, 2, 13, 26, 37, 74, 481, 962

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 521,234,343,962, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

521:521

234:2x 3x 3x 13

343:7x 7x 7

962:2x 13x 37

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

2x 13 = 26

Therefore, the value for common factors is 26.

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 = 40227474924/(1x26)

LCM = 40227474924/26

LCM = 1547210574

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 521,234,343,962 is 1547210574.
