Given numbers are 278,884,359,482,503
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 278,884,359,482,503 is 5347447647932.
Find LCM of 278,884,359,482,503 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 278, 884, 359, 482, 503 |
| 139, 442, 359, 241, 503 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 139 x 442 x 359 x 241 x 503 = 5347447647932
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 278,884,359,482,503 is 5347447647932.
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 884 x 359 x 482 x 503 = 21389790591728
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
884 : 1, 2, 4, 13, 17, 26, 34, 52, 68, 221, 442, 884
359 : 1, 359
482 : 1, 2, 241, 482
503 : 1, 503
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 278,884,359,482,503, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
278:2x 139
884:2x 2x 13x 17
359:359
482:2x 241
503:503
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 = 21389790591728/(1x4)
LCM = 21389790591728/4
LCM = 5347447647932
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 278,884,359,482,503 is 5347447647932.
