Given numbers are 143,221,394,331,227

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

The LCM of 143,221,394,331,227 is 71967270518.

Find LCM of 143,221,394,331,227 with Prime Factorization

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

13 x 11 x 17 x 394 x 331 x 227 = 71967270518

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 143,221,394,331,227 is 71967270518.

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.

143 x 221 x 394 x 331 x 227 = 935574516734

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.

143 : 1, 11, 13, 143

221 : 1, 13, 17, 221

394 : 1, 2, 197, 394

331 : 1, 331

227 : 1, 227

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 143,221,394,331,227, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

143:11x 13

221:13x 17

394:2x 197

331:331

227:227

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

13 = 13

Therefore, the value for common factors is 13.

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 = 935574516734/(1x13)

LCM = 935574516734/13

LCM = 71967270518

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 143,221,394,331,227 is 71967270518.
