Given numbers are 2,957,671,261

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

The LCM of 2,957,671,261 is 350262.

Find LCM of 2,957,671,261 with Prime Factorization

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

3 x 11 x 29 x 2 x 1 x 61 x 3 = 350262

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 2,957,671,261 is 350262.

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.

2 x 957 x 671 x 261 = 335200734

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.

2 : 1, 2

957 : 1, 3, 11, 29, 33, 87, 319, 957

671 : 1, 11, 61, 671

261 : 1, 3, 9, 29, 87, 261

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 2,957,671,261, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

2:2

957:3x 11x 29

671:11x 61

261:3x 3x 29

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

3x 11x 29 = 957

Therefore, the value for common factors is 957.

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 = 335200734/(1x957)

LCM = 335200734/957

LCM = 350262

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 2,957,671,261 is 350262.

Here are some samples of LCM of two or more Numbers calculations.

• LCM of 3, 734, 112, 299
