Given numbers are 536,540,696,281

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

The LCM of 536,540,696,281 is 589661640.

Find LCM of 536,540,696,281 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 67 x 45 x 29 x 281 = 589661640

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 536,540,696,281 is 589661640.

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.

536 x 540 x 696 x 281 = 56607517440

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.

536 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 67, 134, 268, 536

540 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 10, 12, 15, 18, 20, 27, 30, 36, 45, 54, 60, 90, 108, 135, 180, 270, 540

696 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 29, 58, 87, 116, 174, 232, 348, 696

281 : 1, 281

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 536,540,696,281, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

536:2x 2x 2x 67

540:2x 2x 3x 3x 3x 5

696:2x 2x 2x 3x 29

281:281

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 3 = 96

Therefore, the value for common factors is 96.

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 = 56607517440/(1x96)

LCM = 56607517440/96

LCM = 589661640

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 536,540,696,281 is 589661640.
