Given numbers are 659,406,445,728,642

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

The LCM of 659,406,445,728,642 is 1987375058760.

Find LCM of 659,406,445,728,642 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 7 x 659 x 29 x 445 x 52 x 321 = 1987375058760

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 659,406,445,728,642 is 1987375058760.

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 406 x 445 x 728 x 642 = 55646501645280

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

406 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 29, 58, 203, 406

445 : 1, 5, 89, 445

728 : 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 13, 14, 26, 28, 52, 56, 91, 104, 182, 364, 728

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

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 659,406,445,728,642, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

659:659

406:2x 7x 29

445:5x 89

728:2x 2x 2x 7x 13

642:2x 3x 107

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 7 = 28

Therefore, the value for common factors is 28.

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 = 55646501645280/(1x28)

LCM = 55646501645280/28

LCM = 1987375058760

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 659,406,445,728,642 is 1987375058760.
