Given numbers are 260,229,209,478

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

The LCM of 260,229,209,478 is 2974082540.

Find LCM of 260,229,209,478 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 130 x 229 x 209 x 239 = 2974082540

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 260,229,209,478 is 2974082540.

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.

260 x 229 x 209 x 478 = 5948165080

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.

260 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 13, 20, 26, 52, 65, 130, 260

229 : 1, 229

209 : 1, 11, 19, 209

478 : 1, 2, 239, 478

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 260,229,209,478, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

260:2x 2x 5x 13

229:229

209:11x 19

478:2x 239

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

2 = 2

Therefore, the value for common factors is 2.

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 = 5948165080/(1x2)

LCM = 5948165080/2

LCM = 2974082540

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 260,229,209,478 is 2974082540.
