Given numbers are 656,953,966,270,286

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

The LCM of 656,953,966,270,286 is 1943087786640.

Find LCM of 656,953,966,270,286 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3 x 328 x 953 x 161 x 45 x 143 = 1943087786640

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 656,953,966,270,286 is 1943087786640.

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.

656 x 953 x 966 x 270 x 286 = 46634106879360

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.

656 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 41, 82, 164, 328, 656

953 : 1, 953

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

270 : 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 15, 18, 27, 30, 45, 54, 90, 135, 270

286 : 1, 2, 11, 13, 22, 26, 143, 286

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 656,953,966,270,286, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

656:2x 2x 2x 2x 41

953:953

966:2x 3x 7x 23

270:2x 3x 3x 3x 5

286:2x 11x 13

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 3 = 24

Therefore, the value for common factors is 24.

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 = 46634106879360/(1x24)

LCM = 46634106879360/24

LCM = 1943087786640

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 656,953,966,270,286 is 1943087786640.
