Given numbers are 659,977,785,401,942

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

The LCM of 659,977,785,401,942 is 1216032712530.

Find LCM of 659,977,785,401,942 with Prime Factorization

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

157 x 659 x 977 x 5 x 401 x 6 = 1216032712530

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 659,977,785,401,942 is 1216032712530.

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 977 x 785 x 401 x 942 = 190917135867210

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

977 : 1, 977

785 : 1, 5, 157, 785

401 : 1, 401

942 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 157, 314, 471, 942

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 659,977,785,401,942, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

659:659

977:977

785:5x 157

401:401

942:2x 3x 157

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

157 = 157

Therefore, the value for common factors is 157.

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 = 190917135867210/(1x157)

LCM = 190917135867210/157

LCM = 1216032712530

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 659,977,785,401,942 is 1216032712530.
