Given numbers are 851,420,421,486,682

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

The LCM of 851,420,421,486,682 is 4156237382220.

Find LCM of 851,420,421,486,682 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3 x 851 x 70 x 421 x 81 x 341 = 4156237382220

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 851,420,421,486,682 is 4156237382220.

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.

851 x 420 x 421 x 486 x 682 = 49874848586640

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.

851 : 1, 23, 37, 851

420 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10, 12, 14, 15, 20, 21, 28, 30, 35, 42, 60, 70, 84, 105, 140, 210, 420

421 : 1, 421

486 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 27, 54, 81, 162, 243, 486

682 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 31, 62, 341, 682

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 851,420,421,486,682, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

851:23x 37

420:2x 2x 3x 5x 7

421:421

486:2x 3x 3x 3x 3x 3

682:2x 11x 31

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 3 = 12

Therefore, the value for common factors is 12.

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 = 49874848586640/(1x12)

LCM = 49874848586640/12

LCM = 4156237382220

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 851,420,421,486,682 is 4156237382220.
