Given numbers are 281,982,631,516,409

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

The LCM of 281,982,631,516,409 is 18373427537844.

Find LCM of 281,982,631,516,409 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 281 x 491 x 631 x 258 x 409 = 18373427537844

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 281,982,631,516,409 is 18373427537844.

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 982 x 631 x 516 x 409 = 36746855075688

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

982 : 1, 2, 491, 982

631 : 1, 631

516 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 43, 86, 129, 172, 258, 516

409 : 1, 409

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 281,982,631,516,409, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

281:281

982:2x 491

631:631

516:2x 2x 3x 43

409:409

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 = 36746855075688/(1x2)

LCM = 36746855075688/2

LCM = 18373427537844

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 281,982,631,516,409 is 18373427537844.
