Given numbers are 337,556,138,178,236

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

The LCM of 337,556,138,178,236 is 67888435668.

Find LCM of 337,556,138,178,236 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 337 x 139 x 69 x 89 x 59 = 67888435668

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 337,556,138,178,236 is 67888435668.

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.

337 x 556 x 138 x 178 x 236 = 1086214970688

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.

337 : 1, 337

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

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

178 : 1, 2, 89, 178

236 : 1, 2, 4, 59, 118, 236

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 337,556,138,178,236, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

337:337

556:2x 2x 139

138:2x 3x 23

178:2x 89

236:2x 2x 59

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 2 = 16

Therefore, the value for common factors is 16.

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 = 1086214970688/(1x16)

LCM = 1086214970688/16

LCM = 67888435668

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 337,556,138,178,236 is 67888435668.
