Given numbers are 278,213,843,284,231
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 278,213,843,284,231 is 2562426636.
Find LCM of 278,213,843,284,231 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 278, 213, 843, 284, 231 |
| 3 | 139, 213, 843, 142, 231 |
| 71 | 139, 71, 281, 142, 77 |
| 139, 1, 281, 2, 77 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 3 x 71 x 139 x 1 x 281 x 2 x 77 = 2562426636
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 278,213,843,284,231 is 2562426636.
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 213 x 843 x 284 x 231 = 3274781240808
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
213 : 1, 3, 71, 213
843 : 1, 3, 281, 843
284 : 1, 2, 4, 71, 142, 284
231 : 1, 3, 7, 11, 21, 33, 77, 231
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 278,213,843,284,231, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
278:2x 139
213:3x 71
843:3x 281
284:2x 2x 71
231:3x 7x 11
From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.
2x 3x 3x 71 = 1278
Therefore, the value for common factors is 1278.
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 = 3274781240808/(1x1278)
LCM = 3274781240808/1278
LCM = 2562426636
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 278,213,843,284,231 is 2562426636.
