Given numbers are 406,261,878,235,734

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

The LCM of 406,261,878,235,734 is 138346121970.

Find LCM of 406,261,878,235,734 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 29 x 7 x 9 x 439 x 235 x 367 = 138346121970

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 406,261,878,235,734 is 138346121970.

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.

406 x 261 x 878 x 235 x 734 = 16048150148520

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.

406 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 29, 58, 203, 406

261 : 1, 3, 9, 29, 87, 261

878 : 1, 2, 439, 878

235 : 1, 5, 47, 235

734 : 1, 2, 367, 734

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 406,261,878,235,734, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

406:2x 7x 29

261:3x 3x 29

878:2x 439

235:5x 47

734:2x 367

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 29 = 116

Therefore, the value for common factors is 116.

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 = 16048150148520/(1x116)

LCM = 16048150148520/116

LCM = 138346121970

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 406,261,878,235,734 is 138346121970.
