Given numbers are 898,434,278,686,840

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

The LCM of 898,434,278,686,840 is 79633939560.

Find LCM of 898,434,278,686,840 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 7 x 449 x 31 x 139 x 49 x 60 = 79633939560

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 898,434,278,686,840 is 79633939560.

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.

898 x 434 x 278 x 686 x 840 = 62433008615040

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.

898 : 1, 2, 449, 898

434 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 31, 62, 217, 434

278 : 1, 2, 139, 278

686 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 49, 98, 343, 686

840 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 12, 14, 15, 20, 21, 24, 28, 30, 35, 40, 42, 56, 60, 70, 84, 105, 120, 140, 168, 210, 280, 420, 840

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 898,434,278,686,840, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

898:2x 449

434:2x 7x 31

278:2x 139

686:2x 7x 7x 7

840:2x 2x 2x 3x 5x 7

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 7x 7 = 392

Therefore, the value for common factors is 392.

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 = 62433008615040/(2x392)

LCM = 62433008615040/784

LCM = 79633939560

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 898,434,278,686,840 is 79633939560.
