Given numbers are 260,962,731,455,871

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

The LCM of 260,962,731,455,871 is 3298111180.

Find LCM of 260,962,731,455,871 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 5 x 13 x 2 x 37 x 731 x 7 x 67 = 3298111180

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 260,962,731,455,871 is 3298111180.

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 962 x 731 x 455 x 871 = 72459502624600

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

962 : 1, 2, 13, 26, 37, 74, 481, 962

731 : 1, 17, 43, 731

455 : 1, 5, 7, 13, 35, 65, 91, 455

871 : 1, 13, 67, 871

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 260,962,731,455,871, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

260:2x 2x 5x 13

962:2x 13x 37

731:17x 43

455:5x 7x 13

871:13x 67

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

2x 5x 13x 13x 13 = 21970

Therefore, the value for common factors is 21970.

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 = 72459502624600/(1x21970)

LCM = 72459502624600/21970

LCM = 3298111180

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 260,962,731,455,871 is 3298111180.
