Given numbers are 236,172,446,339,682

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

The LCM of 236,172,446,339,682 is 261600999396.

Find LCM of 236,172,446,339,682 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 59 x 43 x 223 x 339 x 341 = 261600999396

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 236,172,446,339,682 is 261600999396.

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.

236 x 172 x 446 x 339 x 682 = 4185615990336

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.

236 : 1, 2, 4, 59, 118, 236

172 : 1, 2, 4, 43, 86, 172

446 : 1, 2, 223, 446

339 : 1, 3, 113, 339

682 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 31, 62, 341, 682

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 236,172,446,339,682, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

236:2x 2x 59

172:2x 2x 43

446:2x 223

339:3x 113

682:2x 11x 31

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 2 = 16

Therefore, the value for common factors is 16.

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 = 4185615990336/(1x16)

LCM = 4185615990336/16

LCM = 261600999396

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 236,172,446,339,682 is 261600999396.
