Given numbers are 284,327,118,138

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

The LCM of 284,327,118,138 is 126021876.

Find LCM of 284,327,118,138 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3 x 142 x 109 x 59 x 23 = 126021876

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 284,327,118,138 is 126021876.

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.

284 x 327 x 118 x 138 = 1512262512

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.

284 : 1, 2, 4, 71, 142, 284

327 : 1, 3, 109, 327

118 : 1, 2, 59, 118

138 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 23, 46, 69, 138

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 284,327,118,138, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

284:2x 2x 71

327:3x 109

118:2x 59

138:2x 3x 23

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 3 = 12

Therefore, the value for common factors is 12.

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 = 1512262512/(1x12)

LCM = 1512262512/12

LCM = 126021876

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 284,327,118,138 is 126021876.
