Given numbers are 668,316,789,257,721

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

The LCM of 668,316,789,257,721 is 7715231201076.

Find LCM of 668,316,789,257,721 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 167 x 79 x 789 x 257 x 721 = 7715231201076

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 668,316,789,257,721 is 7715231201076.

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.

668 x 316 x 789 x 257 x 721 = 30860924804304

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.

668 : 1, 2, 4, 167, 334, 668

316 : 1, 2, 4, 79, 158, 316

789 : 1, 3, 263, 789

257 : 1, 257

721 : 1, 7, 103, 721

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 668,316,789,257,721, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

668:2x 2x 167

316:2x 2x 79

789:3x 263

257:257

721:7x 103

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

2x 2 = 4

Therefore, the value for common factors is 4.

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 = 30860924804304/(1x4)

LCM = 30860924804304/4

LCM = 7715231201076

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 668,316,789,257,721 is 7715231201076.
