Given numbers are 178,277,979,955

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

The LCM of 178,277,979,955 is 517959530.

Find LCM of 178,277,979,955 with Prime Factorization

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

89 x 2 x 277 x 11 x 955 = 517959530

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 178,277,979,955 is 517959530.

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.

178 x 277 x 979 x 955 = 46098398170

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.

178 : 1, 2, 89, 178

277 : 1, 277

979 : 1, 11, 89, 979

955 : 1, 5, 191, 955

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 178,277,979,955, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

178:2x 89

277:277

979:11x 89

955:5x 191

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

89 = 89

Therefore, the value for common factors is 89.

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 = 46098398170/(1x89)

LCM = 46098398170/89

LCM = 517959530

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 178,277,979,955 is 517959530.
