Given numbers are 142,872,327,841

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

The LCM of 142,872,327,841 is 156203976.

Find LCM of 142,872,327,841 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 109 x 71 x 4 x 3 x 841 = 156203976

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 142,872,327,841 is 156203976.

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.

142 x 872 x 327 x 841 = 34052466768

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.

142 : 1, 2, 71, 142

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

327 : 1, 3, 109, 327

841 : 1, 29, 841

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 142,872,327,841, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

142:2x 71

872:2x 2x 2x 109

327:3x 109

841:29x 29

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

2x 109 = 218

Therefore, the value for common factors is 218.

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 = 34052466768/(1x218)

LCM = 34052466768/218

LCM = 156203976

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 142,872,327,841 is 156203976.
