Given numbers are 887,464,218,638

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

The LCM of 887,464,218,638 is 493470032.

Find LCM of 887,464,218,638 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 29 x 887 x 8 x 109 x 11 = 493470032

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 887,464,218,638 is 493470032.

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.

887 x 464 x 218 x 638 = 57242523712

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.

887 : 1, 887

464 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 29, 58, 116, 232, 464

218 : 1, 2, 109, 218

638 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 29, 58, 319, 638

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 887,464,218,638, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

887:887

464:2x 2x 2x 2x 29

218:2x 109

638:2x 11x 29

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

2x 2x 29 = 116

Therefore, the value for common factors is 116.

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 = 57242523712/(1x116)

LCM = 57242523712/116

LCM = 493470032

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 887,464,218,638 is 493470032.
