Given numbers are 254,851,635,261

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

The LCM of 254,851,635,261 is 282080970.

Find LCM of 254,851,635,261 with Prime Factorization

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

127 x 2 x 851 x 5 x 261 = 282080970

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 254,851,635,261 is 282080970.

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.

254 x 851 x 635 x 261 = 35824283190

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.

254 : 1, 2, 127, 254

851 : 1, 23, 37, 851

635 : 1, 5, 127, 635

261 : 1, 3, 9, 29, 87, 261

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 254,851,635,261, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

254:2x 127

851:23x 37

635:5x 127

261:3x 3x 29

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

127 = 127

Therefore, the value for common factors is 127.

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 = 35824283190/(1x127)

LCM = 35824283190/127

LCM = 282080970

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 254,851,635,261 is 282080970.
