Given numbers are 140,688,851,273,796

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

The LCM of 140,688,851,273,796 is 159039032880.

Find LCM of 140,688,851,273,796 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 7 x 5 x 172 x 851 x 39 x 199 = 159039032880

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 140,688,851,273,796 is 159039032880.

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.

140 x 688 x 851 x 273 x 796 = 17812371682560

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.

140 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 10, 14, 20, 28, 35, 70, 140

688 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 43, 86, 172, 344, 688

851 : 1, 23, 37, 851

273 : 1, 3, 7, 13, 21, 39, 91, 273

796 : 1, 2, 4, 199, 398, 796

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 140,688,851,273,796, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

140:2x 2x 5x 7

688:2x 2x 2x 2x 43

851:23x 37

273:3x 7x 13

796:2x 2x 199

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 7 = 112

Therefore, the value for common factors is 112.

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 = 17812371682560/(1x112)

LCM = 17812371682560/112

LCM = 159039032880

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 140,688,851,273,796 is 159039032880.
