Given numbers are 657,644,740,646,556

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

The LCM of 657,644,740,646,556 is 3514311777060.

Find LCM of 657,644,740,646,556 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 657 x 161 x 185 x 323 x 139 = 3514311777060

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 657,644,740,646,556 is 3514311777060.

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.

657 x 644 x 740 x 646 x 556 = 112457976865920

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.

657 : 1, 3, 9, 73, 219, 657

644 : 1, 2, 4, 7, 14, 23, 28, 46, 92, 161, 322, 644

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

646 : 1, 2, 17, 19, 34, 38, 323, 646

556 : 1, 2, 4, 139, 278, 556

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 657,644,740,646,556, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

657:3x 3x 73

644:2x 2x 7x 23

740:2x 2x 5x 37

646:2x 17x 19

556:2x 2x 139

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 = 112457976865920/(1x32)

LCM = 112457976865920/32

LCM = 3514311777060

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 657,644,740,646,556 is 3514311777060.
