Given numbers are 172,566,104,286

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

The LCM of 172,566,104,286 is 13921336.

Find LCM of 172,566,104,286 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 13 x 43 x 283 x 2 x 11 = 13921336

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 172,566,104,286 is 13921336.

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.

172 x 566 x 104 x 286 = 2895637888

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.

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

566 : 1, 2, 283, 566

104 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 13, 26, 52, 104

286 : 1, 2, 11, 13, 22, 26, 143, 286

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 172,566,104,286, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

172:2x 2x 43

566:2x 283

104:2x 2x 2x 13

286:2x 11x 13

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 2x 13 = 104

Therefore, the value for common factors is 104.

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 = 2895637888/(2x104)

LCM = 2895637888/208

LCM = 13921336

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 172,566,104,286 is 13921336.
