Given numbers are 859,546,242,887

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

The LCM of 859,546,242,887 is 50337865578.

Find LCM of 859,546,242,887 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 859 x 273 x 121 x 887 = 50337865578

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 859,546,242,887 is 50337865578.

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.

859 x 546 x 242 x 887 = 100675731156

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.

859 : 1, 859

546 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 13, 14, 21, 26, 39, 42, 78, 91, 182, 273, 546

242 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 121, 242

887 : 1, 887

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 859,546,242,887, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

859:859

546:2x 3x 7x 13

242:2x 11x 11

887:887

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

2 = 2

Therefore, the value for common factors is 2.

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 = 100675731156/(1x2)

LCM = 100675731156/2

LCM = 50337865578

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 859,546,242,887 is 50337865578.
