Given numbers are 272,415,918,118,466

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

The LCM of 272,415,918,118,466 is 41897556720.

Find LCM of 272,415,918,118,466 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 17 x 8 x 415 x 27 x 59 x 233 = 41897556720

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 272,415,918,118,466 is 41897556720.

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 415 x 918 x 118 x 466 = 5698067713920

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

415 : 1, 5, 83, 415

918 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 17, 18, 27, 34, 51, 54, 102, 153, 306, 459, 918

118 : 1, 2, 59, 118

466 : 1, 2, 233, 466

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 272,415,918,118,466, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

272:2x 2x 2x 2x 17

415:5x 83

918:2x 3x 3x 3x 17

118:2x 59

466:2x 233

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 17 = 136

Therefore, the value for common factors is 136.

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 = 5698067713920/(1x136)

LCM = 5698067713920/136

LCM = 41897556720

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 272,415,918,118,466 is 41897556720.
