Given numbers are 659,698,185,996

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

The LCM of 659,698,185,996 is 42378141660.

Find LCM of 659,698,185,996 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 659 x 349 x 185 x 498 = 42378141660

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 659,698,185,996 is 42378141660.

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 698 x 185 x 996 = 84756283320

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

698 : 1, 2, 349, 698

185 : 1, 5, 37, 185

996 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 83, 166, 249, 332, 498, 996

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 659,698,185,996, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

659:659

698:2x 349

185:5x 37

996:2x 2x 3x 83

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

2 = 2

Therefore, the value for common factors is 2.

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 = 84756283320/(1x2)

LCM = 84756283320/2

LCM = 42378141660

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 659,698,185,996 is 42378141660.
