Given numbers are 520,377,406,241,143

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

The LCM of 520,377,406,241,143 is 279839560.

Find LCM of 520,377,406,241,143 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 13 x 29 x 20 x 1 x 7 x 241 x 11 = 279839560

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 520,377,406,241,143 is 279839560.

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.

520 x 377 x 406 x 241 x 143 = 2742987367120

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.

520 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 13, 20, 26, 40, 52, 65, 104, 130, 260, 520

377 : 1, 13, 29, 377

406 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 29, 58, 203, 406

241 : 1, 241

143 : 1, 11, 13, 143

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 520,377,406,241,143, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

520:2x 2x 2x 5x 13

377:13x 29

406:2x 7x 29

241:241

143:11x 13

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

2x 13x 13x 29 = 9802

Therefore, the value for common factors is 9802.

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 = 2742987367120/(1x9802)

LCM = 2742987367120/9802

LCM = 279839560

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 520,377,406,241,143 is 279839560.
