Given numbers are 742,292,118,118

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

The LCM of 742,292,118,118 is 6391588.

Find LCM of 742,292,118,118 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 59 x 371 x 146 x 1 x 1 = 6391588

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 742,292,118,118 is 6391588.

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.

742 x 292 x 118 x 118 = 3016829536

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.

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

292 : 1, 2, 4, 73, 146, 292

118 : 1, 2, 59, 118

118 : 1, 2, 59, 118

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 742,292,118,118, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

742:2x 7x 53

292:2x 2x 73

118:2x 59

118:2x 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 2x 59 = 236

Therefore, the value for common factors is 236.

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 = 3016829536/(2x236)

LCM = 3016829536/472

LCM = 6391588

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 742,292,118,118 is 6391588.
