Given numbers are 522,478,953,956

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

The LCM of 522,478,953,956 is 237788748.

Find LCM of 522,478,953,956 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 239 x 261 x 1 x 953 x 2 = 237788748

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 522,478,953,956 is 237788748.

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.

522 x 478 x 953 x 956 = 227326043088

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.

522 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 29, 58, 87, 174, 261, 522

478 : 1, 2, 239, 478

953 : 1, 953

956 : 1, 2, 4, 239, 478, 956

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 522,478,953,956, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

522:2x 3x 3x 29

478:2x 239

953:953

956:2x 2x 239

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 239 = 956

Therefore, the value for common factors is 956.

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 = 227326043088/(1x956)

LCM = 227326043088/956

LCM = 237788748

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 522,478,953,956 is 237788748.
