Given numbers are 197,148,199,659,985

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

The LCM of 197,148,199,659,985 is 19117734980.

Find LCM of 197,148,199,659,985 with Prime Factorization

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

197 x 1 x 148 x 199 x 659 x 5 = 19117734980

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 197,148,199,659,985 is 19117734980.

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.

197 x 148 x 199 x 659 x 985 = 3766193791060

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.

197 : 1, 197

148 : 1, 2, 4, 37, 74, 148

199 : 1, 199

659 : 1, 659

985 : 1, 5, 197, 985

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 197,148,199,659,985, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

197:197

148:2x 2x 37

199:199

659:659

985:5x 197

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

197 = 197

Therefore, the value for common factors is 197.

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 = 3766193791060/(1x197)

LCM = 3766193791060/197

LCM = 19117734980

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 197,148,199,659,985 is 19117734980.
