Given numbers are 357,356,642,957

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

The LCM of 357,356,642,957 is 4338031236.

Find LCM of 357,356,642,957 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3 x 119 x 178 x 107 x 319 = 4338031236

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 357,356,642,957 is 4338031236.

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.

357 x 356 x 642 x 957 = 78084562248

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.

357 : 1, 3, 7, 17, 21, 51, 119, 357

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

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

957 : 1, 3, 11, 29, 33, 87, 319, 957

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 357,356,642,957, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

357:3x 7x 17

356:2x 2x 89

642:2x 3x 107

957:3x 11x 29

From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.

2x 3x 3 = 18

Therefore, the value for common factors is 18.

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 = 78084562248/(1x18)

LCM = 78084562248/18

LCM = 4338031236

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 357,356,642,957 is 4338031236.
