Given numbers are 279,257,282,892

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

The LCM of 279,257,282,892 is 3006076572.

Find LCM of 279,257,282,892 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3 x 93 x 257 x 47 x 446 = 3006076572

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 279,257,282,892 is 3006076572.

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.

279 x 257 x 282 x 892 = 18036459432

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.

279 : 1, 3, 9, 31, 93, 279

257 : 1, 257

282 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 47, 94, 141, 282

892 : 1, 2, 4, 223, 446, 892

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 279,257,282,892, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

279:3x 3x 31

257:257

282:2x 3x 47

892:2x 2x 223

From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.

2x 3 = 6

Therefore, the value for common factors is 6.

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 = 18036459432/(1x6)

LCM = 18036459432/6

LCM = 3006076572

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 279,257,282,892 is 3006076572.
