Given numbers are 47,55,87,11,116

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

The LCM of 47,55,87,11,116 is 899580.

Find LCM of 47,55,87,11,116 with Prime Factorization

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

11 x 29 x 47 x 5 x 3 x 1 x 4 = 899580

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 47,55,87,11,116 is 899580.

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.

47 x 55 x 87 x 11 x 116 = 286966020

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.

47 : 1, 47

55 : 1, 5, 11, 55

87 : 1, 3, 29, 87

11 : 1, 11

116 : 1, 2, 4, 29, 58, 116

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 47,55,87,11,116, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

47:47

55:5x 11

87:3x 29

11:11

116:2x 2x 29

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

11x 29 = 319

Therefore, the value for common factors is 319.

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 = 286966020/(1x319)

LCM = 286966020/319

LCM = 899580

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 47,55,87,11,116 is 899580.
