Given numbers are 942,341,868,869
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 942,341,868,869 is 355271532.
Find LCM of 942,341,868,869 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 942, 341, 868, 869 |
| 11 | 471, 341, 434, 869 |
| 31 | 471, 31, 434, 79 |
| 471, 1, 14, 79 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 11 x 31 x 471 x 1 x 14 x 79 = 355271532
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 942,341,868,869 is 355271532.
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.
942 x 341 x 868 x 869 = 242295184824
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.
942 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 157, 314, 471, 942
341 : 1, 11, 31, 341
868 : 1, 2, 4, 7, 14, 28, 31, 62, 124, 217, 434, 868
869 : 1, 11, 79, 869
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 942,341,868,869, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
942:2x 3x 157
341:11x 31
868:2x 2x 7x 31
869:11x 79
From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.
2x 11x 31 = 682
Therefore, the value for common factors is 682.
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 = 242295184824/(1x682)
LCM = 242295184824/682
LCM = 355271532
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 942,341,868,869 is 355271532.
