Given numbers are 293,431,220,272

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

The LCM of 293,431,220,272 is 1889193680.

Find LCM of 293,431,220,272 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 293 x 431 x 55 x 68 = 1889193680

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 293,431,220,272 is 1889193680.

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.

293 x 431 x 220 x 272 = 7556774720

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.

293 : 1, 293

431 : 1, 431

220 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 11, 20, 22, 44, 55, 110, 220

272 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 17, 34, 68, 136, 272

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 293,431,220,272, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

293:293

431:431

220:2x 2x 5x 11

272:2x 2x 2x 2x 17

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

2x 2 = 4

Therefore, the value for common factors is 4.

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 = 7556774720/(1x4)

LCM = 7556774720/4

LCM = 1889193680

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 293,431,220,272 is 1889193680.
