Given numbers are 842,422,428,749

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

The LCM of 842,422,428,749 is 266137676.

Find LCM of 842,422,428,749 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 107 x 421 x 211 x 2 x 7 = 266137676

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 842,422,428,749 is 266137676.

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 422 x 428 x 749 = 113906925328

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

422 : 1, 2, 211, 422

428 : 1, 2, 4, 107, 214, 428

749 : 1, 7, 107, 749

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 842,422,428,749, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

842:2x 421

422:2x 211

428:2x 2x 107

749:7x 107

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 107 = 428

Therefore, the value for common factors is 428.

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 = 113906925328/(1x428)

LCM = 113906925328/428

LCM = 266137676

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 842,422,428,749 is 266137676.
