Given numbers are 940,390,420,186,566

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

The LCM of 940,390,420,186,566 is 2251327260.

Find LCM of 940,390,420,186,566 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 3 x 5 x 47 x 13 x 7 x 31 x 283 = 2251327260

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 940,390,420,186,566 is 2251327260.

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.

940 x 390 x 420 x 186 x 566 = 16209556272000

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.

940 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 47, 94, 188, 235, 470, 940

390 : 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 13, 15, 26, 30, 39, 65, 78, 130, 195, 390

420 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10, 12, 14, 15, 20, 21, 28, 30, 35, 42, 60, 70, 84, 105, 140, 210, 420

186 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 31, 62, 93, 186

566 : 1, 2, 283, 566

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 940,390,420,186,566, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

940:2x 2x 5x 47

390:2x 3x 5x 13

420:2x 2x 3x 5x 7

186:2x 3x 31

566:2x 283

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 3x 3x 5x 5 = 3600

Therefore, the value for common factors is 3600.

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 = 16209556272000/(2x3600)

LCM = 16209556272000/7200

LCM = 2251327260

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 940,390,420,186,566 is 2251327260.
