Given numbers are 261,106,132,227

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

The LCM of 261,106,132,227 is 138164004.

Find LCM of 261,106,132,227 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3 x 87 x 53 x 22 x 227 = 138164004

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 261,106,132,227 is 138164004.

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.

261 x 106 x 132 x 227 = 828984024

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.

261 : 1, 3, 9, 29, 87, 261

106 : 1, 2, 53, 106

132 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 11, 12, 22, 33, 44, 66, 132

227 : 1, 227

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 261,106,132,227, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

261:3x 3x 29

106:2x 53

132:2x 2x 3x 11

227:227

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 = 828984024/(1x6)

LCM = 828984024/6

LCM = 138164004

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 261,106,132,227 is 138164004.
