Given numbers are 232,252,497,952,346

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

The LCM of 232,252,497,952,346 is 3051981576.

Find LCM of 232,252,497,952,346 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 2 x 7 x 29 x 9 x 71 x 17 x 173 = 3051981576

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 232,252,497,952,346 is 3051981576.

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.

232 x 252 x 497 x 952 x 346 = 9571014222336

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.

232 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 29, 58, 116, 232

252 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 9, 12, 14, 18, 21, 28, 36, 42, 63, 84, 126, 252

497 : 1, 7, 71, 497

952 : 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 17, 28, 34, 56, 68, 119, 136, 238, 476, 952

346 : 1, 2, 173, 346

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 232,252,497,952,346, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

232:2x 2x 2x 29

252:2x 2x 3x 3x 7

497:7x 71

952:2x 2x 2x 7x 17

346:2x 173

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 2x 7x 7 = 3136

Therefore, the value for common factors is 3136.

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 = 9571014222336/(1x3136)

LCM = 9571014222336/3136

LCM = 3051981576

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 232,252,497,952,346 is 3051981576.
