Given numbers are 862,701,869,689,431

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

The LCM of 862,701,869,689,431 is 361796434142.

Find LCM of 862,701,869,689,431 with Prime Factorization

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

431 x 2 x 701 x 869 x 689 x 1 = 361796434142

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 862,701,869,689,431 is 361796434142.

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.

862 x 701 x 869 x 689 x 431 = 155934263115202

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.

862 : 1, 2, 431, 862

701 : 1, 701

869 : 1, 11, 79, 869

689 : 1, 13, 53, 689

431 : 1, 431

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 862,701,869,689,431, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

862:2x 431

701:701

869:11x 79

689:13x 53

431:431

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

431 = 431

Therefore, the value for common factors is 431.

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 = 155934263115202/(1x431)

LCM = 155934263115202/431

LCM = 361796434142

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 862,701,869,689,431 is 361796434142.
