Given numbers are 596,460,221,768

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

The LCM of 596,460,221,768 is 2908289280.

Find LCM of 596,460,221,768 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 149 x 115 x 221 x 192 = 2908289280

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 596,460,221,768 is 2908289280.

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.

596 x 460 x 221 x 768 = 46532628480

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.

596 : 1, 2, 4, 149, 298, 596

460 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 23, 46, 92, 115, 230, 460

221 : 1, 13, 17, 221

768 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 32, 48, 64, 96, 128, 192, 256, 384, 768

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 596,460,221,768, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

596:2x 2x 149

460:2x 2x 5x 23

221:13x 17

768:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 3

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 2x 2 = 16

Therefore, the value for common factors is 16.

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 = 46532628480/(1x16)

LCM = 46532628480/16

LCM = 2908289280

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 596,460,221,768 is 2908289280.
