Given numbers are 208,740,996,721

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

The LCM of 208,740,996,721 is 6908275920.

Find LCM of 208,740,996,721 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 52 x 185 x 249 x 721 = 6908275920

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 208,740,996,721 is 6908275920.

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.

208 x 740 x 996 x 721 = 110532414720

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.

208 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 13, 16, 26, 52, 104, 208

740 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 37, 74, 148, 185, 370, 740

996 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 83, 166, 249, 332, 498, 996

721 : 1, 7, 103, 721

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 208,740,996,721, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

208:2x 2x 2x 2x 13

740:2x 2x 5x 37

996:2x 2x 3x 83

721:7x 103

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 2 = 16

Therefore, the value for common factors is 16.

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 = 110532414720/(1x16)

LCM = 110532414720/16

LCM = 6908275920

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 208,740,996,721 is 6908275920.
