Given numbers are 556,252,652,872

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

The LCM of 556,252,652,872 is 1244684952.

Find LCM of 556,252,652,872 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 139 x 63 x 163 x 218 = 1244684952

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 556,252,652,872 is 1244684952.

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.

556 x 252 x 652 x 872 = 79659836928

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.

556 : 1, 2, 4, 139, 278, 556

252 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 9, 12, 14, 18, 21, 28, 36, 42, 63, 84, 126, 252

652 : 1, 2, 4, 163, 326, 652

872 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 109, 218, 436, 872

4 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 556,252,652,872, is 4.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

556:2x 2x 139

252:2x 2x 3x 3x 7

652:2x 2x 163

872:2x 2x 2x 109

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 2 = 16

Therefore, the value for common factors is 16.

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 = 79659836928/(4x16)

LCM = 79659836928/64

LCM = 1244684952

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 556,252,652,872 is 1244684952.
