Given numbers are 259,461,772,240,612

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

The LCM of 259,461,772,240,612 is 282058645680.

Find LCM of 259,461,772,240,612 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 3 x 259 x 461 x 193 x 20 x 51 = 282058645680

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 259,461,772,240,612 is 282058645680.

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.

259 x 461 x 772 x 240 x 612 = 13538814992640

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.

259 : 1, 7, 37, 259

461 : 1, 461

772 : 1, 2, 4, 193, 386, 772

240 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 16, 20, 24, 30, 40, 48, 60, 80, 120, 240

612 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 17, 18, 34, 36, 51, 68, 102, 153, 204, 306, 612

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 259,461,772,240,612, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

259:7x 37

461:461

772:2x 2x 193

240:2x 2x 2x 2x 3x 5

612:2x 2x 3x 3x 17

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 3 = 48

Therefore, the value for common factors is 48.

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 = 13538814992640/(1x48)

LCM = 13538814992640/48

LCM = 282058645680

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 259,461,772,240,612 is 282058645680.
