Given numbers are 422,301,540,118,559

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

The LCM of 422,301,540,118,559 is 26304985980.

Find LCM of 422,301,540,118,559 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 43 x 211 x 7 x 270 x 59 x 13 = 26304985980

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 422,301,540,118,559 is 26304985980.

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.

422 x 301 x 540 x 118 x 559 = 4524457588560

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.

422 : 1, 2, 211, 422

301 : 1, 7, 43, 301

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

118 : 1, 2, 59, 118

559 : 1, 13, 43, 559

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 422,301,540,118,559, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

422:2x 211

301:7x 43

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

118:2x 59

559:13x 43

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 43 = 172

Therefore, the value for common factors is 172.

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 = 4524457588560/(1x172)

LCM = 4524457588560/172

LCM = 26304985980

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 422,301,540,118,559 is 26304985980.
