Given numbers are 278,767,782,855,520
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 278,767,782,855,520 is 285130071720.
Find LCM of 278,767,782,855,520 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 278, 767, 782, 855, 520 |
| 5 | 139, 767, 391, 855, 260 |
| 13 | 139, 767, 391, 171, 52 |
| 139, 59, 391, 171, 4 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 5 x 13 x 139 x 59 x 391 x 171 x 4 = 285130071720
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 278,767,782,855,520 is 285130071720.
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 767 x 782 x 855 x 520 = 74133818647200
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
767 : 1, 13, 59, 767
782 : 1, 2, 17, 23, 34, 46, 391, 782
855 : 1, 3, 5, 9, 15, 19, 45, 57, 95, 171, 285, 855
520 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 13, 20, 26, 40, 52, 65, 104, 130, 260, 520
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 278,767,782,855,520, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
278:2x 139
767:13x 59
782:2x 17x 23
855:3x 3x 5x 19
520:2x 2x 2x 5x 13
From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.
2x 2x 5x 13 = 260
Therefore, the value for common factors is 260.
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 = 74133818647200/(1x260)
LCM = 74133818647200/260
LCM = 285130071720
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 278,767,782,855,520 is 285130071720.
