Given numbers are 542,284,841,986

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

The LCM of 542,284,841,986 is 1100354308.

Find LCM of 542,284,841,986 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 29 x 271 x 142 x 29 x 17 = 1100354308

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 542,284,841,986 is 1100354308.

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.

542 x 284 x 841 x 986 = 127641099728

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.

542 : 1, 2, 271, 542

284 : 1, 2, 4, 71, 142, 284

841 : 1, 29, 841

986 : 1, 2, 17, 29, 34, 58, 493, 986

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 542,284,841,986, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

542:2x 271

284:2x 2x 71

841:29x 29

986:2x 17x 29

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 29 = 116

Therefore, the value for common factors is 116.

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 = 127641099728/(1x116)

LCM = 127641099728/116

LCM = 1100354308

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 542,284,841,986 is 1100354308.
