Given numbers are 556,438,181,958

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

The LCM of 556,438,181,958 is 10556817036.

Find LCM of 556,438,181,958 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 278 x 219 x 181 x 479 = 10556817036

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 556,438,181,958 is 10556817036.

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 438 x 181 x 958 = 42227268144

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

438 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 73, 146, 219, 438

181 : 1, 181

958 : 1, 2, 479, 958

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 556,438,181,958, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

556:2x 2x 139

438:2x 3x 73

181:181

958:2x 479

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

2x 2 = 4

Therefore, the value for common factors is 4.

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 = 42227268144/(1x4)

LCM = 42227268144/4

LCM = 10556817036

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 556,438,181,958 is 10556817036.
