Given numbers are 428,317,438,550,279

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

The LCM of 428,317,438,550,279 is 759911100300.

Find LCM of 428,317,438,550,279 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3 x 214 x 317 x 73 x 275 x 93 = 759911100300

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 428,317,438,550,279 is 759911100300.

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.

428 x 317 x 438 x 550 x 279 = 9118933203600

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.

428 : 1, 2, 4, 107, 214, 428

317 : 1, 317

438 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 73, 146, 219, 438

550 : 1, 2, 5, 10, 11, 22, 25, 50, 55, 110, 275, 550

279 : 1, 3, 9, 31, 93, 279

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 428,317,438,550,279, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

428:2x 2x 107

317:317

438:2x 3x 73

550:2x 5x 5x 11

279:3x 3x 31

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 3 = 12

Therefore, the value for common factors is 12.

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 = 9118933203600/(1x12)

LCM = 9118933203600/12

LCM = 759911100300

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 428,317,438,550,279 is 759911100300.
