Given numbers are 544,969,842,421
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 544,969,842,421 is 13054368.
Find LCM of 544,969,842,421 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 544, 969, 842, 421 |
| 17 | 272, 969, 421, 421 |
| 421 | 16, 57, 421, 421 |
| 16, 57, 1, 1 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 17 x 421 x 16 x 57 x 1 x 1 = 13054368
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 544,969,842,421 is 13054368.
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.
544 x 969 x 842 x 421 = 186860223552
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.
544 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 17, 32, 34, 68, 136, 272, 544
969 : 1, 3, 17, 19, 51, 57, 323, 969
842 : 1, 2, 421, 842
421 : 1, 421
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 544,969,842,421, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
544:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 17
969:3x 17x 19
842:2x 421
421:421
From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.
2x 17x 421 = 14314
Therefore, the value for common factors is 14314.
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 = 186860223552/(1x14314)
LCM = 186860223552/14314
LCM = 13054368
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 544,969,842,421 is 13054368.
