Given numbers are 272,668,149,960

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

The LCM of 272,668,149,960 is 406090560.

Find LCM of 272,668,149,960 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 17 x 167 x 149 x 60 = 406090560

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 272,668,149,960 is 406090560.

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 668 x 149 x 960 = 25989795840

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

668 : 1, 2, 4, 167, 334, 668

149 : 1, 149

960 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 16, 20, 24, 30, 32, 40, 48, 60, 64, 80, 96, 120, 160, 192, 240, 320, 480, 960

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 272,668,149,960, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

272:2x 2x 2x 2x 17

668:2x 2x 167

149:149

960:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 3x 5

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 2 = 64

Therefore, the value for common factors is 64.

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 = 25989795840/(1x64)

LCM = 25989795840/64

LCM = 406090560

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 272,668,149,960 is 406090560.
