Given numbers are 178,676,442,239,555

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

The LCM of 178,676,442,239,555 is 135667714260.

Find LCM of 178,676,442,239,555 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 13 x 89 x 26 x 17 x 239 x 555 = 135667714260

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 178,676,442,239,555 is 135667714260.

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 676 x 442 x 239 x 555 = 7054721141520

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

676 : 1, 2, 4, 13, 26, 52, 169, 338, 676

442 : 1, 2, 13, 17, 26, 34, 221, 442

239 : 1, 239

555 : 1, 3, 5, 15, 37, 111, 185, 555

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 178,676,442,239,555, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

178:2x 89

676:2x 2x 13x 13

442:2x 13x 17

239:239

555:3x 5x 37

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 13 = 52

Therefore, the value for common factors is 52.

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 = 7054721141520/(1x52)

LCM = 7054721141520/52

LCM = 135667714260

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 178,676,442,239,555 is 135667714260.
