Given numbers are 158,884,449,306,241

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

The LCM of 158,884,449,306,241 is 68011953516.

Find LCM of 158,884,449,306,241 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 17 x 79 x 26 x 449 x 9 x 241 = 68011953516

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 158,884,449,306,241 is 68011953516.

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.

158 x 884 x 449 x 306 x 241 = 4624812839088

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.

158 : 1, 2, 79, 158

884 : 1, 2, 4, 13, 17, 26, 34, 52, 68, 221, 442, 884

449 : 1, 449

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

241 : 1, 241

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 158,884,449,306,241, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

158:2x 79

884:2x 2x 13x 17

449:449

306:2x 3x 3x 17

241:241

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 17 = 68

Therefore, the value for common factors is 68.

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 = 4624812839088/(1x68)

LCM = 4624812839088/68

LCM = 68011953516

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 158,884,449,306,241 is 68011953516.
