Given numbers are 914,851,872,442

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

The LCM of 914,851,872,442 is 74947045784.

Find LCM of 914,851,872,442 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 457 x 851 x 436 x 221 = 74947045784

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 914,851,872,442 is 74947045784.

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.

914 x 851 x 872 x 442 = 299788183136

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.

914 : 1, 2, 457, 914

851 : 1, 23, 37, 851

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

442 : 1, 2, 13, 17, 26, 34, 221, 442

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 914,851,872,442, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

914:2x 457

851:23x 37

872:2x 2x 2x 109

442:2x 13x 17

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 = 299788183136/(1x4)

LCM = 299788183136/4

LCM = 74947045784

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 914,851,872,442 is 74947045784.
