Given numbers are 157,904,629,187

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

The LCM of 157,904,629,187 is 981999832.

Find LCM of 157,904,629,187 with Prime Factorization

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

17 x 157 x 904 x 37 x 11 = 981999832

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 157,904,629,187 is 981999832.

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.

157 x 904 x 629 x 187 = 16693997144

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.

157 : 1, 157

904 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 113, 226, 452, 904

629 : 1, 17, 37, 629

187 : 1, 11, 17, 187

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 157,904,629,187, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

157:157

904:2x 2x 2x 113

629:17x 37

187:11x 17

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

17 = 17

Therefore, the value for common factors is 17.

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 = 16693997144/(1x17)

LCM = 16693997144/17

LCM = 981999832

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 157,904,629,187 is 981999832.

Here are some samples of LCM of two or more Numbers calculations.
