Given numbers are 553,946,242,437

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

The LCM of 553,946,242,437 is 2514724366.

Find LCM of 553,946,242,437 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 11 x 553 x 43 x 11 x 437 = 2514724366

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 553,946,242,437 is 2514724366.

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.

553 x 946 x 242 x 437 = 55323936052

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.

553 : 1, 7, 79, 553

946 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 43, 86, 473, 946

242 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 121, 242

437 : 1, 19, 23, 437

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 553,946,242,437, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

553:7x 79

946:2x 11x 43

242:2x 11x 11

437:19x 23

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

2x 11 = 22

Therefore, the value for common factors is 22.

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 = 55323936052/(1x22)

LCM = 55323936052/22

LCM = 2514724366

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 553,946,242,437 is 2514724366.
