Given numbers are 146,309,260,537

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

The LCM of 146,309,260,537 is 1049802780.

Find LCM of 146,309,260,537 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3 x 73 x 103 x 130 x 179 = 1049802780

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 146,309,260,537 is 1049802780.

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.

146 x 309 x 260 x 537 = 6298816680

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.

146 : 1, 2, 73, 146

309 : 1, 3, 103, 309

260 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 13, 20, 26, 52, 65, 130, 260

537 : 1, 3, 179, 537

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 146,309,260,537, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

146:2x 73

309:3x 103

260:2x 2x 5x 13

537:3x 179

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

2x 3 = 6

Therefore, the value for common factors is 6.

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 = 6298816680/(1x6)

LCM = 6298816680/6

LCM = 1049802780

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 146,309,260,537 is 1049802780.
