Given numbers are 261,696,593,493

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

The LCM of 261,696,593,493 is 21049128.

Find LCM of 261,696,593,493 with Prime Factorization

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

3 x 29 x 3 x 8 x 593 x 17 = 21049128

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 261,696,593,493 is 21049128.

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 696 x 593 x 493 = 53106949944

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

696 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 29, 58, 87, 116, 174, 232, 348, 696

593 : 1, 593

493 : 1, 17, 29, 493

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 261,696,593,493, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

261:3x 3x 29

696:2x 2x 2x 3x 29

593:593

493:17x 29

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

3x 29x 29 = 2523

Therefore, the value for common factors is 2523.

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 = 53106949944/(1x2523)

LCM = 53106949944/2523

LCM = 21049128

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 261,696,593,493 is 21049128.
