Given numbers are 342,860,856,536

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

The LCM of 342,860,856,536 is 2108546280.

Find LCM of 342,860,856,536 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 2 x 171 x 215 x 107 x 67 = 2108546280

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 342,860,856,536 is 2108546280.

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.

342 x 860 x 856 x 536 = 134946961920

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.

342 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 19, 38, 57, 114, 171, 342

860 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 43, 86, 172, 215, 430, 860

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

536 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 67, 134, 268, 536

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 342,860,856,536, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

342:2x 3x 3x 19

860:2x 2x 5x 43

856:2x 2x 2x 107

536:2x 2x 2x 67

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 2 = 32

Therefore, the value for common factors is 32.

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 = 134946961920/(2x32)

LCM = 134946961920/64

LCM = 2108546280

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 342,860,856,536 is 2108546280.
