Given numbers are 856,942,117,517

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

The LCM of 856,942,117,517 is 8129237688.

Find LCM of 856,942,117,517 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3 x 428 x 157 x 39 x 517 = 8129237688

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 856,942,117,517 is 8129237688.

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 942 x 117 x 517 = 48775426128

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

942 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 157, 314, 471, 942

117 : 1, 3, 9, 13, 39, 117

517 : 1, 11, 47, 517

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 856,942,117,517, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

856:2x 2x 2x 107

942:2x 3x 157

117:3x 3x 13

517:11x 47

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

2x 3 = 6

Therefore, the value for common factors is 6.

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 = 48775426128/(1x6)

LCM = 48775426128/6

LCM = 8129237688

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 856,942,117,517 is 8129237688.
