Given numbers are 118,176,279,121

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

The LCM of 118,176,279,121 is 31868496.

Find LCM of 118,176,279,121 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 11 x 59 x 8 x 279 x 11 = 31868496

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 118,176,279,121 is 31868496.

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.

118 x 176 x 279 x 121 = 701106912

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.

118 : 1, 2, 59, 118

176 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 11, 16, 22, 44, 88, 176

279 : 1, 3, 9, 31, 93, 279

121 : 1, 11, 121

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 118,176,279,121, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

118:2x 59

176:2x 2x 2x 2x 11

279:3x 3x 31

121:11x 11

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

2x 11 = 22

Therefore, the value for common factors is 22.

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 = 701106912/(1x22)

LCM = 701106912/22

LCM = 31868496

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 118,176,279,121 is 31868496.
