Given numbers are 118,186,276,588,306

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

The LCM of 118,186,276,588,306 is 1261505196.

Find LCM of 118,186,276,588,306 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 3 x 59 x 31 x 23 x 49 x 51 = 1261505196

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 118,186,276,588,306 is 1261505196.

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 186 x 276 x 588 x 306 = 1089940489344

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

186 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 31, 62, 93, 186

276 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 23, 46, 69, 92, 138, 276

588 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 12, 14, 21, 28, 42, 49, 84, 98, 147, 196, 294, 588

306 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 17, 18, 34, 51, 102, 153, 306

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 118,186,276,588,306, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

118:2x 59

186:2x 3x 31

276:2x 2x 3x 23

588:2x 2x 3x 7x 7

306:2x 3x 3x 17

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 2x 2x 3x 3x 3 = 432

Therefore, the value for common factors is 432.

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 = 1089940489344/(2x432)

LCM = 1089940489344/864

LCM = 1261505196

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 118,186,276,588,306 is 1261505196.
