Given numbers are 131,505,202,172,682

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

The LCM of 131,505,202,172,682 is 3880123060.

Find LCM of 131,505,202,172,682 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 101 x 131 x 5 x 1 x 86 x 341 = 3880123060

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 131,505,202,172,682 is 3880123060.

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.

131 x 505 x 202 x 172 x 682 = 1567569716240

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.

131 : 1, 131

505 : 1, 5, 101, 505

202 : 1, 2, 101, 202

172 : 1, 2, 4, 43, 86, 172

682 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 31, 62, 341, 682

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 131,505,202,172,682, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

131:131

505:5x 101

202:2x 101

172:2x 2x 43

682:2x 11x 31

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 101 = 404

Therefore, the value for common factors is 404.

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 = 1567569716240/(1x404)

LCM = 1567569716240/404

LCM = 3880123060

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 131,505,202,172,682 is 3880123060.
