Given numbers are 204,912,731,198,966

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

The LCM of 204,912,731,198,966 is 3542028336.

Find LCM of 204,912,731,198,966 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 3 x 17 x 1 x 76 x 43 x 33 x 161 = 3542028336

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 204,912,731,198,966 is 3542028336.

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 912 x 731 x 198 x 966 = 26012656099584

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

912 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 19, 24, 38, 48, 57, 76, 114, 152, 228, 304, 456, 912

731 : 1, 17, 43, 731

198 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 11, 18, 22, 33, 66, 99, 198

966 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21, 23, 42, 46, 69, 138, 161, 322, 483, 966

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 204,912,731,198,966, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

204:2x 2x 3x 17

912:2x 2x 2x 2x 3x 19

731:17x 43

198:2x 3x 3x 11

966:2x 3x 7x 23

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 3x 17 = 7344

Therefore, the value for common factors is 7344.

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 = 26012656099584/(1x7344)

LCM = 26012656099584/7344

LCM = 3542028336

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 204,912,731,198,966 is 3542028336.
