Given numbers are 724,742,862,177

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

The LCM of 724,742,862,177 is 20490993348.

Find LCM of 724,742,862,177 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 362 x 371 x 431 x 177 = 20490993348

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 724,742,862,177 is 20490993348.

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.

724 x 742 x 862 x 177 = 81963973392

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.

724 : 1, 2, 4, 181, 362, 724

742 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 53, 106, 371, 742

862 : 1, 2, 431, 862

177 : 1, 3, 59, 177

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 724,742,862,177, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

724:2x 2x 181

742:2x 7x 53

862:2x 431

177:3x 59

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 = 81963973392/(1x4)

LCM = 81963973392/4

LCM = 20490993348

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 724,742,862,177 is 20490993348.
