Given numbers are 391,862,540,868,548

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

The LCM of 391,862,540,868,548 is 2705378836860.

Find LCM of 391,862,540,868,548 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 391 x 431 x 135 x 217 x 137 = 2705378836860

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 391,862,540,868,548 is 2705378836860.

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.

391 x 862 x 540 x 868 x 548 = 86572122779520

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.

391 : 1, 17, 23, 391

862 : 1, 2, 431, 862

540 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 10, 12, 15, 18, 20, 27, 30, 36, 45, 54, 60, 90, 108, 135, 180, 270, 540

868 : 1, 2, 4, 7, 14, 28, 31, 62, 124, 217, 434, 868

548 : 1, 2, 4, 137, 274, 548

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 391,862,540,868,548, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

391:17x 23

862:2x 431

540:2x 2x 3x 3x 3x 5

868:2x 2x 7x 31

548:2x 2x 137

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 = 86572122779520/(1x32)

LCM = 86572122779520/32

LCM = 2705378836860

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 391,862,540,868,548 is 2705378836860.
