Given numbers are 124,979,642,303,872

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

The LCM of 124,979,642,303,872 is 857999978088.

Find LCM of 124,979,642,303,872 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 3 x 31 x 979 x 107 x 101 x 218 = 857999978088

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 124,979,642,303,872 is 857999978088.

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.

124 x 979 x 642 x 303 x 872 = 20591999474112

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.

124 : 1, 2, 4, 31, 62, 124

979 : 1, 11, 89, 979

642 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 107, 214, 321, 642

303 : 1, 3, 101, 303

872 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 109, 218, 436, 872

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 124,979,642,303,872, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

124:2x 2x 31

979:11x 89

642:2x 3x 107

303:3x 101

872:2x 2x 2x 109

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 3 = 24

Therefore, the value for common factors is 24.

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 = 20591999474112/(1x24)

LCM = 20591999474112/24

LCM = 857999978088

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 124,979,642,303,872 is 857999978088.
