Given numbers are 356,142,642,742,445

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

The LCM of 356,142,642,742,445 is 15050720580.

Find LCM of 356,142,642,742,445 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 89 x 2 x 71 x 321 x 371 x 5 = 15050720580

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 356,142,642,742,445 is 15050720580.

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.

356 x 142 x 642 x 742 x 445 = 10716113052960

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.

356 : 1, 2, 4, 89, 178, 356

142 : 1, 2, 71, 142

642 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 107, 214, 321, 642

742 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 53, 106, 371, 742

445 : 1, 5, 89, 445

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 356,142,642,742,445, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

356:2x 2x 89

142:2x 71

642:2x 3x 107

742:2x 7x 53

445:5x 89

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 89 = 712

Therefore, the value for common factors is 712.

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 = 10716113052960/(1x712)

LCM = 10716113052960/712

LCM = 15050720580

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 356,142,642,742,445 is 15050720580.
