Given numbers are 224,266,686,117,337

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

The LCM of 224,266,686,117,337 is 8222681376.

Find LCM of 224,266,686,117,337 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 7 x 16 x 19 x 49 x 117 x 337 = 8222681376

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 224,266,686,117,337 is 8222681376.

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.

224 x 266 x 686 x 117 x 337 = 1611645549696

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.

224 : 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 16, 28, 32, 56, 112, 224

266 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 19, 38, 133, 266

686 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 49, 98, 343, 686

117 : 1, 3, 9, 13, 39, 117

337 : 1, 337

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 224,266,686,117,337, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

224:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 7

266:2x 7x 19

686:2x 7x 7x 7

117:3x 3x 13

337:337

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 7x 7 = 196

Therefore, the value for common factors is 196.

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 = 1611645549696/(1x196)

LCM = 1611645549696/196

LCM = 8222681376

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 224,266,686,117,337 is 8222681376.
