Given numbers are 254,878,308,857

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

The LCM of 254,878,308,857 is 14716338868.

Find LCM of 254,878,308,857 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 127 x 439 x 154 x 857 = 14716338868

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 254,878,308,857 is 14716338868.

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 878 x 308 x 857 = 58865355472

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

878 : 1, 2, 439, 878

308 : 1, 2, 4, 7, 11, 14, 22, 28, 44, 77, 154, 308

857 : 1, 857

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 254,878,308,857, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

254:2x 127

878:2x 439

308:2x 2x 7x 11

857:857

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

2x 2 = 4

Therefore, the value for common factors is 4.

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 = 58865355472/(1x4)

LCM = 58865355472/4

LCM = 14716338868

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 254,878,308,857 is 14716338868.
