Given numbers are 258,504,116,176,286

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

The LCM of 258,504,116,176,286 is 179747568.

Find LCM of 258,504,116,176,286 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 11 x 43 x 21 x 29 x 2 x 13 = 179747568

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 258,504,116,176,286 is 179747568.

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.

258 x 504 x 116 x 176 x 286 = 759253727232

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.

258 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 43, 86, 129, 258

504 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 12, 14, 18, 21, 24, 28, 36, 42, 56, 63, 72, 84, 126, 168, 252, 504

116 : 1, 2, 4, 29, 58, 116

176 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 11, 16, 22, 44, 88, 176

286 : 1, 2, 11, 13, 22, 26, 143, 286

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 258,504,116,176,286, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

258:2x 3x 43

504:2x 2x 2x 3x 3x 7

116:2x 2x 29

176:2x 2x 2x 2x 11

286:2x 11x 13

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 3x 11 = 2112

Therefore, the value for common factors is 2112.

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 = 759253727232/(2x2112)

LCM = 759253727232/4224

LCM = 179747568

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 258,504,116,176,286 is 179747568.
