Given numbers are 296,716,431,259

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

The LCM of 296,716,431,259 is 159852728.

Find LCM of 296,716,431,259 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 37 x 2 x 179 x 431 x 7 = 159852728

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 296,716,431,259 is 159852728.

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.

296 x 716 x 431 x 259 = 23658203744

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.

296 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 37, 74, 148, 296

716 : 1, 2, 4, 179, 358, 716

431 : 1, 431

259 : 1, 7, 37, 259

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 296,716,431,259, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

296:2x 2x 2x 37

716:2x 2x 179

431:431

259:7x 37

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

2x 2x 37 = 148

Therefore, the value for common factors is 148.

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 = 23658203744/(1x148)

LCM = 23658203744/148

LCM = 159852728

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 296,716,431,259 is 159852728.
