Given numbers are 736,487,968,420,251

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

The LCM of 736,487,968,420,251 is 1143023518560.

Find LCM of 736,487,968,420,251 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 2 x 92 x 487 x 121 x 105 x 251 = 1143023518560

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 736,487,968,420,251 is 1143023518560.

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.

736 x 487 x 968 x 420 x 251 = 36576752593920

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.

736 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 23, 32, 46, 92, 184, 368, 736

487 : 1, 487

968 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 11, 22, 44, 88, 121, 242, 484, 968

420 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10, 12, 14, 15, 20, 21, 28, 30, 35, 42, 60, 70, 84, 105, 140, 210, 420

251 : 1, 251

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 736,487,968,420,251, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

736:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 23

487:487

968:2x 2x 2x 11x 11

420:2x 2x 3x 5x 7

251:251

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 2 = 32

Therefore, the value for common factors is 32.

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 = 36576752593920/(1x32)

LCM = 36576752593920/32

LCM = 1143023518560

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 736,487,968,420,251 is 1143023518560.
