Given numbers are 205,246,677,872

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

The LCM of 205,246,677,872 is 363061560.

Find LCM of 205,246,677,872 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 41 x 5 x 3 x 677 x 436 = 363061560

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 205,246,677,872 is 363061560.

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.

205 x 246 x 677 x 872 = 29771047920

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.

205 : 1, 5, 41, 205

246 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 41, 82, 123, 246

677 : 1, 677

872 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 109, 218, 436, 872

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 205,246,677,872, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

205:5x 41

246:2x 3x 41

677:677

872:2x 2x 2x 109

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

2x 41 = 82

Therefore, the value for common factors is 82.

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 = 29771047920/(1x82)

LCM = 29771047920/82

LCM = 363061560

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 205,246,677,872 is 363061560.
