Given numbers are 842,953,460,138

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

The LCM of 842,953,460,138 is 553673940.

Find LCM of 842,953,460,138 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 23 x 421 x 953 x 10 x 3 = 553673940

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 842,953,460,138 is 553673940.

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 953 x 460 x 138 = 50938002480

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

953 : 1, 953

460 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 23, 46, 92, 115, 230, 460

138 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 23, 46, 69, 138

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 842,953,460,138, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

842:2x 421

953:953

460:2x 2x 5x 23

138:2x 3x 23

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 23 = 92

Therefore, the value for common factors is 92.

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 = 50938002480/(1x92)

LCM = 50938002480/92

LCM = 553673940

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 842,953,460,138 is 553673940.
