Given numbers are 116,987,951,973

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

The LCM of 116,987,951,973 is 5044860996.

Find LCM of 116,987,951,973 with Prime Factorization

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

3 x 7 x 116 x 47 x 317 x 139 = 5044860996

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 116,987,951,973 is 5044860996.

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.

116 x 987 x 951 x 973 = 105942080916

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.

116 : 1, 2, 4, 29, 58, 116

987 : 1, 3, 7, 21, 47, 141, 329, 987

951 : 1, 3, 317, 951

973 : 1, 7, 139, 973

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 116,987,951,973, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

116:2x 2x 29

987:3x 7x 47

951:3x 317

973:7x 139

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

3x 7 = 21

Therefore, the value for common factors is 21.

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 = 105942080916/(1x21)

LCM = 105942080916/21

LCM = 5044860996

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 116,987,951,973 is 5044860996.
