Given numbers are 642,473,728,490

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

The LCM of 642,473,728,490 is 3868704840.

Find LCM of 642,473,728,490 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 7 x 321 x 473 x 52 x 35 = 3868704840

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 642,473,728,490 is 3868704840.

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 473 x 728 x 490 = 108323735520

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

473 : 1, 11, 43, 473

728 : 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 13, 14, 26, 28, 52, 56, 91, 104, 182, 364, 728

490 : 1, 2, 5, 7, 10, 14, 35, 49, 70, 98, 245, 490

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 642,473,728,490, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

642:2x 3x 107

473:11x 43

728:2x 2x 2x 7x 13

490:2x 5x 7x 7

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 7 = 28

Therefore, the value for common factors is 28.

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 = 108323735520/(1x28)

LCM = 108323735520/28

LCM = 3868704840

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 642,473,728,490 is 3868704840.
