Given numbers are 438,311,511,262

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

The LCM of 438,311,511,262 is 124911906.

Find LCM of 438,311,511,262 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 73 x 3 x 311 x 7 x 131 = 124911906

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 438,311,511,262 is 124911906.

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.

438 x 311 x 511 x 262 = 18237138276

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.

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

311 : 1, 311

511 : 1, 7, 73, 511

262 : 1, 2, 131, 262

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 438,311,511,262, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

438:2x 3x 73

311:311

511:7x 73

262:2x 131

From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.

2x 73 = 146

Therefore, the value for common factors is 146.

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 = 18237138276/(1x146)

LCM = 18237138276/146

LCM = 124911906

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 438,311,511,262 is 124911906.
