Given numbers are 855,461,474,178

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

The LCM of 855,461,474,178 is 5542607610.

Find LCM of 855,461,474,178 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3 x 285 x 461 x 79 x 89 = 5542607610

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 855,461,474,178 is 5542607610.

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.

855 x 461 x 474 x 178 = 33255645660

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.

855 : 1, 3, 5, 9, 15, 19, 45, 57, 95, 171, 285, 855

461 : 1, 461

474 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 79, 158, 237, 474

178 : 1, 2, 89, 178

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 855,461,474,178, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

855:3x 3x 5x 19

461:461

474:2x 3x 79

178:2x 89

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

2x 3 = 6

Therefore, the value for common factors is 6.

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 = 33255645660/(1x6)

LCM = 33255645660/6

LCM = 5542607610

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 855,461,474,178 is 5542607610.
