Given numbers are 259,978,225,394

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

The LCM of 259,978,225,394 is 3742537050.

Find LCM of 259,978,225,394 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3 x 259 x 163 x 75 x 197 = 3742537050

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 259,978,225,394 is 3742537050.

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 978 x 225 x 394 = 22455222300

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

978 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 163, 326, 489, 978

225 : 1, 3, 5, 9, 15, 25, 45, 75, 225

394 : 1, 2, 197, 394

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 259,978,225,394, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

259:7x 37

978:2x 3x 163

225:3x 3x 5x 5

394:2x 197

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 = 22455222300/(1x6)

LCM = 22455222300/6

LCM = 3742537050

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 259,978,225,394 is 3742537050.
