Given numbers are 104,173,170,234,137

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

The LCM of 104,173,170,234,137 is 1885651560.

Find LCM of 104,173,170,234,137 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 13 x 4 x 173 x 85 x 9 x 137 = 1885651560

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 104,173,170,234,137 is 1885651560.

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.

104 x 173 x 170 x 234 x 137 = 98053881120

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.

104 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 13, 26, 52, 104

173 : 1, 173

170 : 1, 2, 5, 10, 17, 34, 85, 170

234 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 13, 18, 26, 39, 78, 117, 234

137 : 1, 137

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 104,173,170,234,137, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

104:2x 2x 2x 13

173:173

170:2x 5x 17

234:2x 3x 3x 13

137:137

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 13 = 52

Therefore, the value for common factors is 52.

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 = 98053881120/(1x52)

LCM = 98053881120/52

LCM = 1885651560

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 104,173,170,234,137 is 1885651560.
