Given numbers are 257,637,515,338,376

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

The LCM of 257,637,515,338,376 is 412107939880.

Find LCM of 257,637,515,338,376 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 13 x 257 x 49 x 515 x 13 x 188 = 412107939880

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 257,637,515,338,376 is 412107939880.

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 637 x 515 x 338 x 376 = 10714806436880

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

637 : 1, 7, 13, 49, 91, 637

515 : 1, 5, 103, 515

338 : 1, 2, 13, 26, 169, 338

376 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 47, 94, 188, 376

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 257,637,515,338,376, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

257:257

637:7x 7x 13

515:5x 103

338:2x 13x 13

376:2x 2x 2x 47

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

2x 13 = 26

Therefore, the value for common factors is 26.

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 = 10714806436880/(1x26)

LCM = 10714806436880/26

LCM = 412107939880

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 257,637,515,338,376 is 412107939880.
