Given numbers are 258,949,287,532,185

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

The LCM of 258,949,287,532,185 is 493995667620.

Find LCM of 258,949,287,532,185 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 7 x 129 x 949 x 41 x 38 x 185 = 493995667620

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 258,949,287,532,185 is 493995667620.

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 949 x 287 x 532 x 185 = 6915939346680

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

949 : 1, 13, 73, 949

287 : 1, 7, 41, 287

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

185 : 1, 5, 37, 185

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 258,949,287,532,185, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

258:2x 3x 43

949:13x 73

287:7x 41

532:2x 2x 7x 19

185:5x 37

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

2x 7 = 14

Therefore, the value for common factors is 14.

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 = 6915939346680/(1x14)

LCM = 6915939346680/14

LCM = 493995667620

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 258,949,287,532,185 is 493995667620.
