Given numbers are 221,860,828,348,862

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

The LCM of 221,860,828,348,862 is 491740907580.

Find LCM of 221,860,828,348,862 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 3 x 221 x 215 x 69 x 29 x 431 = 491740907580

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 221,860,828,348,862 is 491740907580.

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.

221 x 860 x 828 x 348 x 862 = 47207127127680

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.

221 : 1, 13, 17, 221

860 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 43, 86, 172, 215, 430, 860

828 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 23, 36, 46, 69, 92, 138, 207, 276, 414, 828

348 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 29, 58, 87, 116, 174, 348

862 : 1, 2, 431, 862

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 221,860,828,348,862, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

221:13x 17

860:2x 2x 5x 43

828:2x 2x 3x 3x 23

348:2x 2x 3x 29

862:2x 431

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 2x 2x 2x 3 = 96

Therefore, the value for common factors is 96.

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 = 47207127127680/(1x96)

LCM = 47207127127680/96

LCM = 491740907580

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 221,860,828,348,862 is 491740907580.
