Given numbers are 251,782,338,321,187
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 251,782,338,321,187 is 117129124398.
Find LCM of 251,782,338,321,187 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 251, 782, 338, 321, 187 |
| 17 | 251, 391, 169, 321, 187 |
| 251, 23, 169, 321, 11 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 17 x 251 x 23 x 169 x 321 x 11 = 117129124398
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 251,782,338,321,187 is 117129124398.
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.
251 x 782 x 338 x 321 x 187 = 3982390229532
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.
251 : 1, 251
782 : 1, 2, 17, 23, 34, 46, 391, 782
338 : 1, 2, 13, 26, 169, 338
321 : 1, 3, 107, 321
187 : 1, 11, 17, 187
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 251,782,338,321,187, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
251:251
782:2x 17x 23
338:2x 13x 13
321:3x 107
187:11x 17
From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.
2x 17 = 34
Therefore, the value for common factors is 34.
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 = 3982390229532/(1x34)
LCM = 3982390229532/34
LCM = 117129124398
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 251,782,338,321,187 is 117129124398.
