Given numbers are 850,642,342,327,948

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

The LCM of 850,642,342,327,948 is 267844293900.

Find LCM of 850,642,342,327,948 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3 x 425 x 107 x 57 x 109 x 158 = 267844293900

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 850,642,342,327,948 is 267844293900.

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.

850 x 642 x 342 x 327 x 948 = 57854367482400

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.

850 : 1, 2, 5, 10, 17, 25, 34, 50, 85, 170, 425, 850

642 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 107, 214, 321, 642

342 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 19, 38, 57, 114, 171, 342

327 : 1, 3, 109, 327

948 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 79, 158, 237, 316, 474, 948

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 850,642,342,327,948, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

850:2x 5x 5x 17

642:2x 3x 107

342:2x 3x 3x 19

327:3x 109

948:2x 2x 3x 79

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 3x 3 = 216

Therefore, the value for common factors is 216.

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 = 57854367482400/(1x216)

LCM = 57854367482400/216

LCM = 267844293900

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 850,642,342,327,948 is 267844293900.
