Given numbers are 865,862,712,431

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

The LCM of 865,862,712,431 is 265444280.

Find LCM of 865,862,712,431 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 431 x 865 x 1 x 356 x 1 = 265444280

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 865,862,712,431 is 265444280.

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.

865 x 862 x 712 x 431 = 228812969360

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.

865 : 1, 5, 173, 865

862 : 1, 2, 431, 862

712 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 89, 178, 356, 712

431 : 1, 431

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 865,862,712,431, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

865:5x 173

862:2x 431

712:2x 2x 2x 89

431:431

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

2x 431 = 862

Therefore, the value for common factors is 862.

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 = 228812969360/(1x862)

LCM = 228812969360/862

LCM = 265444280

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 865,862,712,431 is 265444280.
