Given numbers are 257,942,532,152,568

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

The LCM of 257,942,532,152,568 is 9144374568.

Find LCM of 257,942,532,152,568 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 2 x 19 x 257 x 471 x 7 x 1 x 71 = 9144374568

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 257,942,532,152,568 is 9144374568.

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 942 x 532 x 152 x 568 = 11119559474688

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

942 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 157, 314, 471, 942

532 : 1, 2, 4, 7, 14, 19, 28, 38, 76, 133, 266, 532

152 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 19, 38, 76, 152

568 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 71, 142, 284, 568

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 257,942,532,152,568, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

257:257

942:2x 3x 157

532:2x 2x 7x 19

152:2x 2x 2x 19

568:2x 2x 2x 71

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

2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 19 = 1216

Therefore, the value for common factors is 1216.

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 = 11119559474688/(1x1216)

LCM = 11119559474688/1216

LCM = 9144374568

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 257,942,532,152,568 is 9144374568.
