Given numbers are 884,391,394,731

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

The LCM of 884,391,394,731 is 172232372.

Find LCM of 884,391,394,731 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 17 x 26 x 23 x 197 x 43 = 172232372

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 884,391,394,731 is 172232372.

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.

884 x 391 x 394 x 731 = 99550311016

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.

884 : 1, 2, 4, 13, 17, 26, 34, 52, 68, 221, 442, 884

391 : 1, 17, 23, 391

394 : 1, 2, 197, 394

731 : 1, 17, 43, 731

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 884,391,394,731, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

884:2x 2x 13x 17

391:17x 23

394:2x 197

731:17x 43

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

2x 17x 17 = 578

Therefore, the value for common factors is 578.

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 = 99550311016/(1x578)

LCM = 99550311016/578

LCM = 172232372

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 884,391,394,731 is 172232372.
