Given numbers are 742,424,167,862

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

The LCM of 742,424,167,862 is 213627736.

Find LCM of 742,424,167,862 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 53 x 7 x 4 x 167 x 431 = 213627736

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 742,424,167,862 is 213627736.

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 424 x 167 x 862 = 45289080032

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

424 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 53, 106, 212, 424

167 : 1, 167

862 : 1, 2, 431, 862

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 742,424,167,862, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

742:2x 7x 53

424:2x 2x 2x 53

167:167

862:2x 431

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 53 = 212

Therefore, the value for common factors is 212.

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 = 45289080032/(1x212)

LCM = 45289080032/212

LCM = 213627736

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 742,424,167,862 is 213627736.
