Given numbers are 678,868,478

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

The LCM of 678,868,478 is 70326228.

Find LCM of 678,868,478 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 339 x 434 x 239 = 70326228

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 678,868,478 is 70326228.

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.

678 x 868 x 478 = 281304912

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.

678 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 113, 226, 339, 678

868 : 1, 2, 4, 7, 14, 28, 31, 62, 124, 217, 434, 868

478 : 1, 2, 239, 478

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 678,868,478, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

678:2x 3x 113

868:2x 2x 7x 31

478:2x 239

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

2 = 2

Therefore, the value for common factors is 2.

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 = 281304912/(2x2)

LCM = 281304912/4

LCM = 70326228

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 678,868,478 is 70326228.
