Given numbers are 279,299,921,916,531
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 279,299,921,916,531 is 1384080188868.
Find LCM of 279,299,921,916,531 with Prime Factorization
| 3 | 279, 299, 921, 916, 531 |
| 3 | 93, 299, 307, 916, 177 |
| 31, 299, 307, 916, 59 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
3 x 3 x 31 x 299 x 307 x 916 x 59 = 1384080188868
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 279,299,921,916,531 is 1384080188868.
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 299 x 921 x 916 x 531 = 37370165099436
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
299 : 1, 13, 23, 299
921 : 1, 3, 307, 921
916 : 1, 2, 4, 229, 458, 916
531 : 1, 3, 9, 59, 177, 531
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 279,299,921,916,531, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
279:3x 3x 31
299:13x 23
921:3x 307
916:2x 2x 229
531:3x 3x 59
From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.
3x 3x 3 = 27
Therefore, the value for common factors is 27.
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 = 37370165099436/(1x27)
LCM = 37370165099436/27
LCM = 1384080188868
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 279,299,921,916,531 is 1384080188868.
