Given numbers are 502,815,268,285

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

The LCM of 502,815,268,285 is 3124934940.

Find LCM of 502,815,268,285 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 5 x 251 x 163 x 134 x 57 = 3124934940

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 502,815,268,285 is 3124934940.

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.

502 x 815 x 268 x 285 = 31249349400

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.

502 : 1, 2, 251, 502

815 : 1, 5, 163, 815

268 : 1, 2, 4, 67, 134, 268

285 : 1, 3, 5, 15, 19, 57, 95, 285

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 502,815,268,285, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

502:2x 251

815:5x 163

268:2x 2x 67

285:3x 5x 19

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

2x 5 = 10

Therefore, the value for common factors is 10.

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 = 31249349400/(1x10)

LCM = 31249349400/10

LCM = 3124934940

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 502,815,268,285 is 3124934940.
