Given numbers are 252,198,346,537,837

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

The LCM of 252,198,346,537,837 is 7983168732.

Find LCM of 252,198,346,537,837 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3 x 3 x 14 x 11 x 173 x 179 x 93 = 7983168732

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 252,198,346,537,837 is 7983168732.

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.

252 x 198 x 346 x 537 x 837 = 7759640007504

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.

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

198 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 11, 18, 22, 33, 66, 99, 198

346 : 1, 2, 173, 346

537 : 1, 3, 179, 537

837 : 1, 3, 9, 27, 31, 93, 279, 837

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 252,198,346,537,837, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

252:2x 2x 3x 3x 7

198:2x 3x 3x 11

346:2x 173

537:3x 179

837:3x 3x 3x 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 3x 3x 3x 3x 3 = 972

Therefore, the value for common factors is 972.

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 = 7759640007504/(1x972)

LCM = 7759640007504/972

LCM = 7983168732

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 252,198,346,537,837 is 7983168732.
