Given numbers are 520,842,177,118

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

The LCM of 520,842,177,118 is 38748840.

Find LCM of 520,842,177,118 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 59 x 260 x 421 x 3 x 1 = 38748840

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 520,842,177,118 is 38748840.

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 842 x 177 x 118 = 9144726240

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

842 : 1, 2, 421, 842

177 : 1, 3, 59, 177

118 : 1, 2, 59, 118

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 520,842,177,118, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

520:2x 2x 2x 5x 13

842:2x 421

177:3x 59

118:2x 59

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 59 = 236

Therefore, the value for common factors is 236.

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 = 9144726240/(1x236)

LCM = 9144726240/236

LCM = 38748840

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 520,842,177,118 is 38748840.

Here are some samples of LCM of two or more Numbers calculations.
