Given numbers are 540,473,952,731

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

The LCM of 540,473,952,731 is 60789960.

Find LCM of 540,473,952,731 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 17 x 43 x 135 x 11 x 14 x 1 = 60789960

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 540,473,952,731 is 60789960.

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.

540 x 473 x 952 x 731 = 177749843040

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.

540 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 10, 12, 15, 18, 20, 27, 30, 36, 45, 54, 60, 90, 108, 135, 180, 270, 540

473 : 1, 11, 43, 473

952 : 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 17, 28, 34, 56, 68, 119, 136, 238, 476, 952

731 : 1, 17, 43, 731

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 540,473,952,731, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

540:2x 2x 3x 3x 3x 5

473:11x 43

952:2x 2x 2x 7x 17

731:17x 43

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 17x 43 = 2924

Therefore, the value for common factors is 2924.

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 = 177749843040/(1x2924)

LCM = 177749843040/2924

LCM = 60789960

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 540,473,952,731 is 60789960.
