Given numbers are 118,622,989,172

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

The LCM of 118,622,989,172 is 72588644.

Find LCM of 118,622,989,172 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 43 x 59 x 311 x 23 x 2 = 72588644

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 118,622,989,172 is 72588644.

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.

118 x 622 x 989 x 172 = 12485246768

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.

118 : 1, 2, 59, 118

622 : 1, 2, 311, 622

989 : 1, 23, 43, 989

172 : 1, 2, 4, 43, 86, 172

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 118,622,989,172, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

118:2x 59

622:2x 311

989:23x 43

172:2x 2x 43

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 43 = 172

Therefore, the value for common factors is 172.

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 = 12485246768/(1x172)

LCM = 12485246768/172

LCM = 72588644

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 118,622,989,172 is 72588644.
