Given numbers are 659,137,720,462,660

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

The LCM of 659,137,720,462,660 is 5005289520.

Find LCM of 659,137,720,462,660 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 3 x 5 x 11 x 659 x 137 x 12 x 7 x 1 = 5005289520

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 659,137,720,462,660 is 5005289520.

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.

659 x 137 x 720 x 462 x 660 = 19820946499200

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.

659 : 1, 659

137 : 1, 137

720 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 15, 16, 18, 20, 24, 30, 36, 40, 45, 48, 60, 72, 80, 90, 120, 144, 180, 240, 360, 720

462 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 11, 14, 21, 22, 33, 42, 66, 77, 154, 231, 462

660 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 11, 12, 15, 20, 22, 30, 33, 44, 55, 60, 66, 110, 132, 165, 220, 330, 660

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 659,137,720,462,660, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

659:659

137:137

720:2x 2x 2x 2x 3x 3x 5

462:2x 3x 7x 11

660:2x 2x 3x 5x 11

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 3x 3x 5x 11 = 3960

Therefore, the value for common factors is 3960.

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 = 19820946499200/(1x3960)

LCM = 19820946499200/3960

LCM = 5005289520

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 659,137,720,462,660 is 5005289520.
