Given numbers are 346,552,461,979,118

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

The LCM of 346,552,461,979,118 is 2542850394216.

Find LCM of 346,552,461,979,118 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 173 x 276 x 461 x 979 x 59 = 2542850394216

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 346,552,461,979,118 is 2542850394216.

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.

346 x 552 x 461 x 979 x 118 = 10171401576864

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.

346 : 1, 2, 173, 346

552 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 23, 24, 46, 69, 92, 138, 184, 276, 552

461 : 1, 461

979 : 1, 11, 89, 979

118 : 1, 2, 59, 118

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 346,552,461,979,118, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

346:2x 173

552:2x 2x 2x 3x 23

461:461

979:11x 89

118:2x 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 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 = 10171401576864/(1x4)

LCM = 10171401576864/4

LCM = 2542850394216

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 346,552,461,979,118 is 2542850394216.
