Given numbers are 842,497,366,720,498

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

The LCM of 842,497,366,720,498 is 762744190320.

Find LCM of 842,497,366,720,498 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3 x 421 x 497 x 61 x 120 x 83 = 762744190320

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 842,497,366,720,498 is 762744190320.

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 497 x 366 x 720 x 498 = 54917581703040

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

497 : 1, 7, 71, 497

366 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 61, 122, 183, 366

720 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 15, 16, 18, 20, 24, 30, 36, 40, 45, 48, 60, 72, 80, 90, 120, 144, 180, 240, 360, 720

498 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 83, 166, 249, 498

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 842,497,366,720,498, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

842:2x 421

497:7x 71

366:2x 3x 61

720:2x 2x 2x 2x 3x 3x 5

498:2x 3x 83

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

2x 2x 2x 3x 3 = 72

Therefore, the value for common factors is 72.

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 = 54917581703040/(1x72)

LCM = 54917581703040/72

LCM = 762744190320

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 842,497,366,720,498 is 762744190320.
