Given numbers are 272,104,988,876

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

The LCM of 272,104,988,876 is 14713296.

Find LCM of 272,104,988,876 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 2 x 13 x 34 x 1 x 19 x 219 = 14713296

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 272,104,988,876 is 14713296.

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.

272 x 104 x 988 x 876 = 24482924544

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.

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

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

988 : 1, 2, 4, 13, 19, 26, 38, 52, 76, 247, 494, 988

876 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 73, 146, 219, 292, 438, 876

4 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 272,104,988,876, is 4.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

272:2x 2x 2x 2x 17

104:2x 2x 2x 13

988:2x 2x 13x 19

876:2x 2x 3x 73

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 2x 2x 13 = 416

Therefore, the value for common factors is 416.

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 = 24482924544/(4x416)

LCM = 24482924544/1664

LCM = 14713296

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 272,104,988,876 is 14713296.
