Given numbers are 500,259,936,688

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

The LCM of 500,259,936,688 is 2606058000.

Find LCM of 500,259,936,688 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 2 x 125 x 259 x 117 x 86 = 2606058000

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 500,259,936,688 is 2606058000.

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.

500 x 259 x 936 x 688 = 83393856000

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.

500 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 25, 50, 100, 125, 250, 500

259 : 1, 7, 37, 259

936 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 13, 18, 24, 26, 36, 39, 52, 72, 78, 104, 117, 156, 234, 312, 468, 936

688 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 43, 86, 172, 344, 688

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 500,259,936,688, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

500:2x 2x 5x 5x 5

259:7x 37

936:2x 2x 2x 3x 3x 13

688:2x 2x 2x 2x 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 2x 2x 2 = 32

Therefore, the value for common factors is 32.

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 = 83393856000/(1x32)

LCM = 83393856000/32

LCM = 2606058000

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 500,259,936,688 is 2606058000.
