Given numbers are 946,635,146,138

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

The LCM of 946,635,146,138 is 3025776270.

Find LCM of 946,635,146,138 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 473 x 635 x 73 x 69 = 3025776270

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 946,635,146,138 is 3025776270.

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.

946 x 635 x 146 x 138 = 12103105080

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.

946 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 43, 86, 473, 946

635 : 1, 5, 127, 635

146 : 1, 2, 73, 146

138 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 23, 46, 69, 138

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 946,635,146,138, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

946:2x 11x 43

635:5x 127

146:2x 73

138:2x 3x 23

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 = 12103105080/(1x4)

LCM = 12103105080/4

LCM = 3025776270

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 946,635,146,138 is 3025776270.
