Given numbers are 274,142,979,878

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

The LCM of 274,142,979,878 is 8360959574.

Find LCM of 274,142,979,878 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 137 x 71 x 979 x 439 = 8360959574

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 274,142,979,878 is 8360959574.

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.

274 x 142 x 979 x 878 = 33443838296

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.

274 : 1, 2, 137, 274

142 : 1, 2, 71, 142

979 : 1, 11, 89, 979

878 : 1, 2, 439, 878

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 274,142,979,878, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

274:2x 137

142:2x 71

979:11x 89

878:2x 439

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 = 33443838296/(1x4)

LCM = 33443838296/4

LCM = 8360959574

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 274,142,979,878 is 8360959574.
