Given numbers are 659,940,786

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

The LCM of 659,940,786 is 243447780.

Find LCM of 659,940,786 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 659 x 470 x 393 = 243447780

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 659,940,786 is 243447780.

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 940 x 786 = 486895560

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

940 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 47, 94, 188, 235, 470, 940

786 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 131, 262, 393, 786

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 659,940,786, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

659:659

940:2x 2x 5x 47

786:2x 3x 131

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 = 486895560/(1x2)

LCM = 486895560/2

LCM = 243447780

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 659,940,786 is 243447780.
