Given numbers are 281,905,226,518

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

The LCM of 281,905,226,518 is 14885488870.

Find LCM of 281,905,226,518 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 281 x 905 x 113 x 259 = 14885488870

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 281,905,226,518 is 14885488870.

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 905 x 226 x 518 = 29770977740

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

905 : 1, 5, 181, 905

226 : 1, 2, 113, 226

518 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 37, 74, 259, 518

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 281,905,226,518, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

281:281

905:5x 181

226:2x 113

518:2x 7x 37

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

2 = 2

Therefore, the value for common factors is 2.

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 = 29770977740/(1x2)

LCM = 29770977740/2

LCM = 14885488870

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 281,905,226,518 is 14885488870.
