Given numbers are 685,232,377,959

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

The LCM of 685,232,377,959 is 14461720.

Find LCM of 685,232,377,959 with Prime Factorization

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

29 x 137 x 5 x 8 x 13 x 7 = 14461720

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 685,232,377,959 is 14461720.

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.

685 x 232 x 377 x 959 = 57456413560

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.

685 : 1, 5, 137, 685

232 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 29, 58, 116, 232

377 : 1, 13, 29, 377

959 : 1, 7, 137, 959

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 685,232,377,959, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

685:5x 137

232:2x 2x 2x 29

377:13x 29

959:7x 137

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

29x 137 = 3973

Therefore, the value for common factors is 3973.

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 = 57456413560/(1x3973)

LCM = 57456413560/3973

LCM = 14461720

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 685,232,377,959 is 14461720.
