Given numbers are 204,394,989,261,798

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

The LCM of 204,394,989,261,798 is 459900179172.

Find LCM of 204,394,989,261,798 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3 x 34 x 197 x 989 x 87 x 133 = 459900179172

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 204,394,989,261,798 is 459900179172.

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.

204 x 394 x 989 x 261 x 798 = 16556406450192

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.

204 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 17, 34, 51, 68, 102, 204

394 : 1, 2, 197, 394

989 : 1, 23, 43, 989

261 : 1, 3, 9, 29, 87, 261

798 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 19, 21, 38, 42, 57, 114, 133, 266, 399, 798

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 204,394,989,261,798, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

204:2x 2x 3x 17

394:2x 197

989:23x 43

261:3x 3x 29

798:2x 3x 7x 19

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 3x 3 = 36

Therefore, the value for common factors is 36.

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 = 16556406450192/(1x36)

LCM = 16556406450192/36

LCM = 459900179172

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 204,394,989,261,798 is 459900179172.
