Given numbers are 266,104,303,272

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

The LCM of 266,104,303,272 is 142497264.

Find LCM of 266,104,303,272 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 2 x 133 x 13 x 303 x 34 = 142497264

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 266,104,303,272 is 142497264.

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.

266 x 104 x 303 x 272 = 2279956224

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.

266 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 19, 38, 133, 266

104 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 13, 26, 52, 104

303 : 1, 3, 101, 303

272 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 17, 34, 68, 136, 272

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 266,104,303,272, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

266:2x 7x 19

104:2x 2x 2x 13

303:3x 101

272:2x 2x 2x 2x 17

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

2x 2x 2x 2 = 16

Therefore, the value for common factors is 16.

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 = 2279956224/(1x16)

LCM = 2279956224/16

LCM = 142497264

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 266,104,303,272 is 142497264.
