Given numbers are 532,240,717,538,168

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

The LCM of 532,240,717,538,168 is 2052168720.

Find LCM of 532,240,717,538,168 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 7 x 19 x 10 x 239 x 269 x 1 = 2052168720

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 532,240,717,538,168 is 2052168720.

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.

532 x 240 x 717 x 538 x 168 = 8274344279040

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.

532 : 1, 2, 4, 7, 14, 19, 28, 38, 76, 133, 266, 532

240 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 16, 20, 24, 30, 40, 48, 60, 80, 120, 240

717 : 1, 3, 239, 717

538 : 1, 2, 269, 538

168 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 12, 14, 21, 24, 28, 42, 56, 84, 168

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 532,240,717,538,168, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

532:2x 2x 7x 19

240:2x 2x 2x 2x 3x 5

717:3x 239

538:2x 269

168:2x 2x 2x 3x 7

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 2x 2x 3x 3x 7 = 4032

Therefore, the value for common factors is 4032.

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 = 8274344279040/(1x4032)

LCM = 8274344279040/4032

LCM = 2052168720

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 532,240,717,538,168 is 2052168720.
