Given numbers are 278,107,454,959

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

The LCM of 278,107,454,959 is 6475495978.

Find LCM of 278,107,454,959 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 139 x 107 x 227 x 959 = 6475495978

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 278,107,454,959 is 6475495978.

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.

278 x 107 x 454 x 959 = 12950991956

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.

278 : 1, 2, 139, 278

107 : 1, 107

454 : 1, 2, 227, 454

959 : 1, 7, 137, 959

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 278,107,454,959, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

278:2x 139

107:107

454:2x 227

959:7x 137

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

2 = 2

Therefore, the value for common factors is 2.

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 = 12950991956/(1x2)

LCM = 12950991956/2

LCM = 6475495978

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 278,107,454,959 is 6475495978.
