Given numbers are 258,986,476,242,532

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

The LCM of 258,986,476,242,532 is 4093866084.

Find LCM of 258,986,476,242,532 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 7 x 17 x 129 x 29 x 1 x 121 x 19 = 4093866084

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 258,986,476,242,532 is 4093866084.

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 986 x 476 x 242 x 532 = 15589442047872

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

986 : 1, 2, 17, 29, 34, 58, 493, 986

476 : 1, 2, 4, 7, 14, 17, 28, 34, 68, 119, 238, 476

242 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 121, 242

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

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 258,986,476,242,532, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

258:2x 3x 43

986:2x 17x 29

476:2x 2x 7x 17

242:2x 11x 11

532:2x 2x 7x 19

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 7x 17 = 1904

Therefore, the value for common factors is 1904.

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 = 15589442047872/(2x1904)

LCM = 15589442047872/3808

LCM = 4093866084

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 258,986,476,242,532 is 4093866084.
