Given numbers are 642,416,477,856
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 642,416,477,856 is 21232224.
Find LCM of 642,416,477,856 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 642, 416, 477, 856 |
| 2 | 321, 208, 477, 428 |
| 2 | 321, 104, 477, 214 |
| 3 | 321, 52, 477, 107 |
| 107 | 107, 52, 159, 107 |
| 1, 52, 159, 1 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 107 x 1 x 52 x 159 x 1 = 21232224
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 642,416,477,856 is 21232224.
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 416 x 477 x 856 = 109048702464
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
416 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 13, 16, 26, 32, 52, 104, 208, 416
477 : 1, 3, 9, 53, 159, 477
856 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 107, 214, 428, 856
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 642,416,477,856, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
642:2x 3x 107
416:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 13
477:3x 3x 53
856:2x 2x 2x 107
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 2x 3x 107 = 5136
Therefore, the value for common factors is 5136.
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 = 109048702464/(1x5136)
LCM = 109048702464/5136
LCM = 21232224
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 642,416,477,856 is 21232224.
