Given numbers are 253,703,842,842

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

The LCM of 253,703,842,842 is 149757278.

Find LCM of 253,703,842,842 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 421 x 253 x 703 x 1 x 1 = 149757278

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 253,703,842,842 is 149757278.

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.

253 x 703 x 842 x 842 = 126095628076

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.

253 : 1, 11, 23, 253

703 : 1, 19, 37, 703

842 : 1, 2, 421, 842

842 : 1, 2, 421, 842

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 253,703,842,842, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

253:11x 23

703:19x 37

842:2x 421

842:2x 421

From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.

2x 421 = 842

Therefore, the value for common factors is 842.

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 = 126095628076/(1x842)

LCM = 126095628076/842

LCM = 149757278

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 253,703,842,842 is 149757278.
