Given numbers are 278,849,708,586

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

The LCM of 278,849,708,586 is 8160224628.

Find LCM of 278,849,708,586 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3 x 139 x 283 x 118 x 293 = 8160224628

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 278,849,708,586 is 8160224628.

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 849 x 708 x 586 = 97922695536

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

849 : 1, 3, 283, 849

708 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 59, 118, 177, 236, 354, 708

586 : 1, 2, 293, 586

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 278,849,708,586, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

278:2x 139

849:3x 283

708:2x 2x 3x 59

586:2x 293

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 3 = 12

Therefore, the value for common factors is 12.

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 = 97922695536/(1x12)

LCM = 97922695536/12

LCM = 8160224628

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 278,849,708,586 is 8160224628.
