Given numbers are 278,358,927,977

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

The LCM of 278,358,927,977 is 45068398398.

Find LCM of 278,358,927,977 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 139 x 179 x 927 x 977 = 45068398398

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 278,358,927,977 is 45068398398.

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 358 x 927 x 977 = 90136796796

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

358 : 1, 2, 179, 358

927 : 1, 3, 9, 103, 309, 927

977 : 1, 977

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 278,358,927,977, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

278:2x 139

358:2x 179

927:3x 3x 103

977:977

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 = 90136796796/(1x2)

LCM = 90136796796/2

LCM = 45068398398

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 278,358,927,977 is 45068398398.
