Given numbers are 842,222,491,524,518
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 842,222,491,524,518 is 84161970228.
Find LCM of 842,222,491,524,518 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 842, 222, 491, 524, 518 |
| 37 | 421, 111, 491, 262, 259 |
| 421, 3, 491, 262, 7 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 37 x 421 x 3 x 491 x 262 x 7 = 84161970228
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 842,222,491,524,518 is 84161970228.
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.
842 x 222 x 491 x 524 x 518 = 24911943187488
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.
842 : 1, 2, 421, 842
222 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 37, 74, 111, 222
491 : 1, 491
524 : 1, 2, 4, 131, 262, 524
518 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 37, 74, 259, 518
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 842,222,491,524,518, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
842:2x 421
222:2x 3x 37
491:491
524:2x 2x 131
518:2x 7x 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 2x 37 = 296
Therefore, the value for common factors is 296.
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 = 24911943187488/(1x296)
LCM = 24911943187488/296
LCM = 84161970228
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 842,222,491,524,518 is 84161970228.
