Given numbers are 156,840,853,948,471

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

The LCM of 156,840,853,948,471 is 115530968280.

Find LCM of 156,840,853,948,471 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 3 x 13 x 70 x 853 x 79 x 157 = 115530968280

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 156,840,853,948,471 is 115530968280.

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.

156 x 840 x 853 x 948 x 471 = 49909378296960

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.

156 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 13, 26, 39, 52, 78, 156

840 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 12, 14, 15, 20, 21, 24, 28, 30, 35, 40, 42, 56, 60, 70, 84, 105, 120, 140, 168, 210, 280, 420, 840

853 : 1, 853

948 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 79, 158, 237, 316, 474, 948

471 : 1, 3, 157, 471

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 156,840,853,948,471, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

156:2x 2x 3x 13

840:2x 2x 2x 3x 5x 7

853:853

948:2x 2x 3x 79

471:3x 157

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 3x 3x 3 = 432

Therefore, the value for common factors is 432.

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 = 49909378296960/(1x432)

LCM = 49909378296960/432

LCM = 115530968280

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 156,840,853,948,471 is 115530968280.
