Given numbers are 949,473,221,481

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

The LCM of 949,473,221,481 is 282343633.

Find LCM of 949,473,221,481 with Prime Factorization

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

13 x 73 x 473 x 17 x 37 = 282343633

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 949,473,221,481 is 282343633.

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.

949 x 473 x 221 x 481 = 47716073977

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.

949 : 1, 13, 73, 949

473 : 1, 11, 43, 473

221 : 1, 13, 17, 221

481 : 1, 13, 37, 481

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 949,473,221,481, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

949:13x 73

473:11x 43

221:13x 17

481:13x 37

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

13x 13 = 169

Therefore, the value for common factors is 169.

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 = 47716073977/(1x169)

LCM = 47716073977/169

LCM = 282343633

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 949,473,221,481 is 282343633.
