Given numbers are 838,642,478,444

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

The LCM of 838,642,478,444 is 4757498628.

Find LCM of 838,642,478,444 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3 x 419 x 107 x 239 x 74 = 4757498628

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 838,642,478,444 is 4757498628.

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.

838 x 642 x 478 x 444 = 114179967072

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.

838 : 1, 2, 419, 838

642 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 107, 214, 321, 642

478 : 1, 2, 239, 478

444 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 37, 74, 111, 148, 222, 444

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 838,642,478,444, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

838:2x 419

642:2x 3x 107

478:2x 239

444:2x 2x 3x 37

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 3 = 12

Therefore, the value for common factors is 12.

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 = 114179967072/(2x12)

LCM = 114179967072/24

LCM = 4757498628

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 838,642,478,444 is 4757498628.
