Given numbers are 862,946,204,277

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

The LCM of 862,946,204,277 is 11519890404.

Find LCM of 862,946,204,277 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 431 x 473 x 102 x 277 = 11519890404

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 862,946,204,277 is 11519890404.

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 946 x 204 x 277 = 46079561616

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

946 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 43, 86, 473, 946

204 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 17, 34, 51, 68, 102, 204

277 : 1, 277

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 862,946,204,277, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

862:2x 431

946:2x 11x 43

204:2x 2x 3x 17

277:277

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 = 46079561616/(1x4)

LCM = 46079561616/4

LCM = 11519890404

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 862,946,204,277 is 11519890404.
