Given numbers are 842,542,362,964

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

The LCM of 842,542,362,964 is 19907054044.

Find LCM of 842,542,362,964 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 421 x 271 x 181 x 482 = 19907054044

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 842,542,362,964 is 19907054044.

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 542 x 362 x 964 = 159256432352

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

542 : 1, 2, 271, 542

362 : 1, 2, 181, 362

964 : 1, 2, 4, 241, 482, 964

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 842,542,362,964, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

842:2x 421

542:2x 271

362:2x 181

964:2x 2x 241

From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.

2x 2 = 4

Therefore, the value for common factors is 4.

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 = 159256432352/(2x4)

LCM = 159256432352/8

LCM = 19907054044

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 842,542,362,964 is 19907054044.
