Given numbers are 281,253,938,562

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

The LCM of 281,253,938,562 is 66685234.

Find LCM of 281,253,938,562 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 281 x 1 x 253 x 469 x 1 = 66685234

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 281,253,938,562 is 66685234.

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.

281 x 253 x 938 x 562 = 37477101508

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.

281 : 1, 281

253 : 1, 11, 23, 253

938 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 67, 134, 469, 938

562 : 1, 2, 281, 562

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 281,253,938,562, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

281:281

253:11x 23

938:2x 7x 67

562:2x 281

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

2x 281 = 562

Therefore, the value for common factors is 562.

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 = 37477101508/(1x562)

LCM = 37477101508/562

LCM = 66685234

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 281,253,938,562 is 66685234.
