Given numbers are 198,542,303,537,554

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

The LCM of 198,542,303,537,554 is 268712986014.

Find LCM of 198,542,303,537,554 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3 x 33 x 271 x 101 x 179 x 277 = 268712986014

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 198,542,303,537,554 is 268712986014.

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.

198 x 542 x 303 x 537 x 554 = 9673667496504

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.

198 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 11, 18, 22, 33, 66, 99, 198

542 : 1, 2, 271, 542

303 : 1, 3, 101, 303

537 : 1, 3, 179, 537

554 : 1, 2, 277, 554

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 198,542,303,537,554, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

198:2x 3x 3x 11

542:2x 271

303:3x 101

537:3x 179

554:2x 277

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 3x 3 = 36

Therefore, the value for common factors is 36.

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 = 9673667496504/(1x36)

LCM = 9673667496504/36

LCM = 268712986014

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 198,542,303,537,554 is 268712986014.
