Given numbers are 348,737,686,860,872

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

The LCM of 348,737,686,860,872 is 4123213331160.

Find LCM of 348,737,686,860,872 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 87 x 737 x 343 x 215 x 218 = 4123213331160

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 348,737,686,860,872 is 4123213331160.

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.

348 x 737 x 686 x 860 x 872 = 131942826597120

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.

348 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 29, 58, 87, 116, 174, 348

737 : 1, 11, 67, 737

686 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 49, 98, 343, 686

860 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 43, 86, 172, 215, 430, 860

872 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 109, 218, 436, 872

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 348,737,686,860,872, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

348:2x 2x 3x 29

737:11x 67

686:2x 7x 7x 7

860:2x 2x 5x 43

872:2x 2x 2x 109

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 = 131942826597120/(1x32)

LCM = 131942826597120/32

LCM = 4123213331160

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 348,737,686,860,872 is 4123213331160.
