Given numbers are 872,786,427,131

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

The LCM of 872,786,427,131 is 146331192.

Find LCM of 872,786,427,131 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 131 x 436 x 3 x 427 x 1 = 146331192

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 872,786,427,131 is 146331192.

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.

872 x 786 x 427 x 131 = 38338772304

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.

872 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 109, 218, 436, 872

786 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 131, 262, 393, 786

427 : 1, 7, 61, 427

131 : 1, 131

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 872,786,427,131, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

872:2x 2x 2x 109

786:2x 3x 131

427:7x 61

131:131

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

2x 131 = 262

Therefore, the value for common factors is 262.

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 = 38338772304/(1x262)

LCM = 38338772304/262

LCM = 146331192

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 872,786,427,131 is 146331192.
