Given numbers are 852,178,889,391

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

The LCM of 852,178,889,391 is 26357736972.

Find LCM of 852,178,889,391 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 426 x 89 x 889 x 391 = 26357736972

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 852,178,889,391 is 26357736972.

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.

852 x 178 x 889 x 391 = 52715473944

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.

852 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 71, 142, 213, 284, 426, 852

178 : 1, 2, 89, 178

889 : 1, 7, 127, 889

391 : 1, 17, 23, 391

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 852,178,889,391, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

852:2x 2x 3x 71

178:2x 89

889:7x 127

391:17x 23

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

2 = 2

Therefore, the value for common factors is 2.

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 = 52715473944/(1x2)

LCM = 52715473944/2

LCM = 26357736972

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 852,178,889,391 is 26357736972.
