Given numbers are 862,298,642,632

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

The LCM of 862,298,642,632 is 13028236968.

Find LCM of 862,298,642,632 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 431 x 149 x 321 x 316 = 13028236968

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 862,298,642,632 is 13028236968.

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.

862 x 298 x 642 x 632 = 104225895744

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.

862 : 1, 2, 431, 862

298 : 1, 2, 149, 298

642 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 107, 214, 321, 642

632 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 79, 158, 316, 632

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 862,298,642,632, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

862:2x 431

298:2x 149

642:2x 3x 107

632:2x 2x 2x 79

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 = 104225895744/(2x4)

LCM = 104225895744/8

LCM = 13028236968

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 862,298,642,632 is 13028236968.
