Given numbers are 258,603,257,862

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

The LCM of 258,603,257,862 is 5744155086.

Find LCM of 258,603,257,862 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3 x 43 x 201 x 257 x 431 = 5744155086

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 258,603,257,862 is 5744155086.

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 603 x 257 x 862 = 34464930516

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

603 : 1, 3, 9, 67, 201, 603

257 : 1, 257

862 : 1, 2, 431, 862

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 258,603,257,862, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

258:2x 3x 43

603:3x 3x 67

257:257

862:2x 431

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

2x 3 = 6

Therefore, the value for common factors is 6.

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 = 34464930516/(1x6)

LCM = 34464930516/6

LCM = 5744155086

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 258,603,257,862 is 5744155086.
