Given numbers are 334,556,956,232,257

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

The LCM of 334,556,956,232,257 is 330788406968.

Find LCM of 334,556,956,232,257 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 167 x 139 x 239 x 58 x 257 = 330788406968

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 334,556,956,232,257 is 330788406968.

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.

334 x 556 x 956 x 232 x 257 = 10585229022976

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.

334 : 1, 2, 167, 334

556 : 1, 2, 4, 139, 278, 556

956 : 1, 2, 4, 239, 478, 956

232 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 29, 58, 116, 232

257 : 1, 257

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 334,556,956,232,257, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

334:2x 167

556:2x 2x 139

956:2x 2x 239

232:2x 2x 2x 29

257:257

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 2x 2x 2 = 32

Therefore, the value for common factors is 32.

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 = 10585229022976/(1x32)

LCM = 10585229022976/32

LCM = 330788406968

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 334,556,956,232,257 is 330788406968.
