Given numbers are 842,358,317,214

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

The LCM of 842,358,317,214 is 5112203842.

Find LCM of 842,358,317,214 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 421 x 179 x 317 x 107 = 5112203842

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 842,358,317,214 is 5112203842.

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.

842 x 358 x 317 x 214 = 20448815368

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.

842 : 1, 2, 421, 842

358 : 1, 2, 179, 358

317 : 1, 317

214 : 1, 2, 107, 214

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 842,358,317,214, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

842:2x 421

358:2x 179

317:317

214:2x 107

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 = 20448815368/(1x4)

LCM = 20448815368/4

LCM = 5112203842

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 842,358,317,214 is 5112203842.
