Given numbers are 262,862,856,865

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

The LCM of 262,862,856,865 is 41805982840.

Find LCM of 262,862,856,865 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 131 x 431 x 428 x 865 = 41805982840

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 262,862,856,865 is 41805982840.

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.

262 x 862 x 856 x 865 = 167223931360

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.

262 : 1, 2, 131, 262

862 : 1, 2, 431, 862

856 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 107, 214, 428, 856

865 : 1, 5, 173, 865

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 262,862,856,865, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

262:2x 131

862:2x 431

856:2x 2x 2x 107

865:5x 173

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

2x 2 = 4

Therefore, the value for common factors is 4.

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 = 167223931360/(1x4)

LCM = 167223931360/4

LCM = 41805982840

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 262,862,856,865 is 41805982840.
