Given numbers are 940,538,701,284

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

The LCM of 940,538,701,284 is 12585095060.

Find LCM of 940,538,701,284 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 235 x 269 x 701 x 71 = 12585095060

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 940,538,701,284 is 12585095060.

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.

940 x 538 x 701 x 284 = 100680760480

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.

940 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 47, 94, 188, 235, 470, 940

538 : 1, 2, 269, 538

701 : 1, 701

284 : 1, 2, 4, 71, 142, 284

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 940,538,701,284, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

940:2x 2x 5x 47

538:2x 269

701:701

284:2x 2x 71

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 2 = 8

Therefore, the value for common factors is 8.

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 = 100680760480/(1x8)

LCM = 100680760480/8

LCM = 12585095060

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 940,538,701,284 is 12585095060.
