Given numbers are 278,372,415,146,451

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

The LCM of 278,372,415,146,451 is 706488730860.

Find LCM of 278,372,415,146,451 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 139 x 186 x 415 x 73 x 451 = 706488730860

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 278,372,415,146,451 is 706488730860.

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 372 x 415 x 146 x 451 = 2825954923440

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

372 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 31, 62, 93, 124, 186, 372

415 : 1, 5, 83, 415

146 : 1, 2, 73, 146

451 : 1, 11, 41, 451

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 278,372,415,146,451, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

278:2x 139

372:2x 2x 3x 31

415:5x 83

146:2x 73

451:11x 41

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 = 2825954923440/(1x4)

LCM = 2825954923440/4

LCM = 706488730860

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 278,372,415,146,451 is 706488730860.
