Given numbers are 642,218,869,304

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

The LCM of 642,218,869,304 is 9243254064.

Find LCM of 642,218,869,304 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 321 x 109 x 869 x 152 = 9243254064

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 642,218,869,304 is 9243254064.

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.

642 x 218 x 869 x 304 = 36973016256

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.

642 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 107, 214, 321, 642

218 : 1, 2, 109, 218

869 : 1, 11, 79, 869

304 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 19, 38, 76, 152, 304

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 642,218,869,304, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

642:2x 3x 107

218:2x 109

869:11x 79

304:2x 2x 2x 2x 19

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

2x 2 = 4

Therefore, the value for common factors is 4.

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 = 36973016256/(1x4)

LCM = 36973016256/4

LCM = 9243254064

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 642,218,869,304 is 9243254064.
