Given numbers are 257,559,689,260

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

The LCM of 257,559,689,260 is 152282780.

Find LCM of 257,559,689,260 with Prime Factorization

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

13 x 257 x 43 x 53 x 20 = 152282780

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 257,559,689,260 is 152282780.

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.

257 x 559 x 689 x 260 = 25735789820

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.

257 : 1, 257

559 : 1, 13, 43, 559

689 : 1, 13, 53, 689

260 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 13, 20, 26, 52, 65, 130, 260

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 257,559,689,260, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

257:257

559:13x 43

689:13x 53

260:2x 2x 5x 13

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

13x 13 = 169

Therefore, the value for common factors is 169.

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 = 25735789820/(1x169)

LCM = 25735789820/169

LCM = 152282780

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 257,559,689,260 is 152282780.
