Given numbers are 856,214,856,842

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

The LCM of 856,214,856,842 is 360376.

Find LCM of 856,214,856,842 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 2 x 107 x 1 x 1 x 1 x 421 = 360376

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 856,214,856,842 is 360376.

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.

856 x 214 x 856 x 842 = 132030234368

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.

856 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 107, 214, 428, 856

214 : 1, 2, 107, 214

856 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 107, 214, 428, 856

842 : 1, 2, 421, 842

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 856,214,856,842, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

856:2x 2x 2x 107

214:2x 107

856:2x 2x 2x 107

842:2x 421

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 2x 107x 107 = 183184

Therefore, the value for common factors is 183184.

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 = 132030234368/(2x183184)

LCM = 132030234368/366368

LCM = 360376

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 856,214,856,842 is 360376.
