Given numbers are 201,942,856,972,994

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

The LCM of 201,942,856,972,994 is 1087453967544.

Find LCM of 201,942,856,972,994 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 3 x 67 x 157 x 214 x 81 x 497 = 1087453967544

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 201,942,856,972,994 is 1087453967544.

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.

201 x 942 x 856 x 972 x 994 = 156593371326336

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.

201 : 1, 3, 67, 201

942 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 157, 314, 471, 942

856 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 107, 214, 428, 856

972 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 27, 36, 54, 81, 108, 162, 243, 324, 486, 972

994 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 71, 142, 497, 994

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 201,942,856,972,994, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

201:3x 67

942:2x 3x 157

856:2x 2x 2x 107

972:2x 2x 3x 3x 3x 3x 3

994:2x 7x 71

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 3 = 144

Therefore, the value for common factors is 144.

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 = 156593371326336/(1x144)

LCM = 156593371326336/144

LCM = 1087453967544

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 201,942,856,972,994 is 1087453967544.
