Given numbers are 797,146,438,278

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

The LCM of 797,146,438,278 is 48522954.

Find LCM of 797,146,438,278 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 73 x 797 x 1 x 3 x 139 = 48522954

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 797,146,438,278 is 48522954.

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.

797 x 146 x 438 x 278 = 14168702568

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.

797 : 1, 797

146 : 1, 2, 73, 146

438 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 73, 146, 219, 438

278 : 1, 2, 139, 278

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 797,146,438,278, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

797:797

146:2x 73

438:2x 3x 73

278:2x 139

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 73 = 292

Therefore, the value for common factors is 292.

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 = 14168702568/(1x292)

LCM = 14168702568/292

LCM = 48522954

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 797,146,438,278 is 48522954.
