Given numbers are 261,871,274,548

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

The LCM of 261,871,274,548 is 124577388.

Find LCM of 261,871,274,548 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 137 x 261 x 871 x 1 x 2 = 124577388

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 261,871,274,548 is 124577388.

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 871 x 274 x 548 = 34134204312

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

871 : 1, 13, 67, 871

274 : 1, 2, 137, 274

548 : 1, 2, 4, 137, 274, 548

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 261,871,274,548, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

261:3x 3x 29

871:13x 67

274:2x 137

548:2x 2x 137

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

2x 137 = 274

Therefore, the value for common factors is 274.

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 = 34134204312/(1x274)

LCM = 34134204312/274

LCM = 124577388

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 261,871,274,548 is 124577388.
