Given numbers are 708,231,466,873,422

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

The LCM of 708,231,466,873,422 is 779929501428.

Find LCM of 708,231,466,873,422 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3 x 118 x 77 x 233 x 291 x 211 = 779929501428

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 708,231,466,873,422 is 779929501428.

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.

708 x 231 x 466 x 873 x 422 = 28077462051408

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.

708 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 59, 118, 177, 236, 354, 708

231 : 1, 3, 7, 11, 21, 33, 77, 231

466 : 1, 2, 233, 466

873 : 1, 3, 9, 97, 291, 873

422 : 1, 2, 211, 422

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 708,231,466,873,422, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

708:2x 2x 3x 59

231:3x 7x 11

466:2x 233

873:3x 3x 97

422:2x 211

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 3x 3 = 36

Therefore, the value for common factors is 36.

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 = 28077462051408/(1x36)

LCM = 28077462051408/36

LCM = 779929501428

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 708,231,466,873,422 is 779929501428.
