Given numbers are 283,218,237,274,872

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

The LCM of 283,218,237,274,872 is 8012569944.

Find LCM of 283,218,237,274,872 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 109 x 283 x 1 x 237 x 137 x 4 = 8012569944

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 283,218,237,274,872 is 8012569944.

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.

283 x 218 x 237 x 274 x 872 = 3493480495584

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.

283 : 1, 283

218 : 1, 2, 109, 218

237 : 1, 3, 79, 237

274 : 1, 2, 137, 274

872 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 109, 218, 436, 872

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 283,218,237,274,872, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

283:283

218:2x 109

237:3x 79

274:2x 137

872:2x 2x 2x 109

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

2x 2x 109 = 436

Therefore, the value for common factors is 436.

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 = 3493480495584/(1x436)

LCM = 3493480495584/436

LCM = 8012569944

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 283,218,237,274,872 is 8012569944.
