Given numbers are 251,958,874,143
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 251,958,874,143 is 15026460878.
Find LCM of 251,958,874,143 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 251, 958, 874, 143 |
| 251, 479, 437, 143 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 251 x 479 x 437 x 143 = 15026460878
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 251,958,874,143 is 15026460878.
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 958 x 874 x 143 = 30052921756
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
958 : 1, 2, 479, 958
874 : 1, 2, 19, 23, 38, 46, 437, 874
143 : 1, 11, 13, 143
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 251,958,874,143, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
251:251
958:2x 479
874:2x 19x 23
143:11x 13
From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.
2 = 2
Therefore, the value for common factors is 2.
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 = 30052921756/(1x2)
LCM = 30052921756/2
LCM = 15026460878
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 251,958,874,143 is 15026460878.
