Given numbers are 157,115,157,171,523

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

The LCM of 157,115,157,171,523 is 1614712815.

Find LCM of 157,115,157,171,523 with Prime Factorization

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

157 x 1 x 115 x 1 x 171 x 523 = 1614712815

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 157,115,157,171,523 is 1614712815.

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.

157 x 115 x 157 x 171 x 523 = 253509911955

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.

157 : 1, 157

115 : 1, 5, 23, 115

157 : 1, 157

171 : 1, 3, 9, 19, 57, 171

523 : 1, 523

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 157,115,157,171,523, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

157:157

115:5x 23

157:157

171:3x 3x 19

523:523

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

157 = 157

Therefore, the value for common factors is 157.

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 = 253509911955/(1x157)

LCM = 253509911955/157

LCM = 1614712815

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 157,115,157,171,523 is 1614712815.
