Given numbers are 158,629,302,144,977

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

The LCM of 158,629,302,144,977 is 1055630038608.

Find LCM of 158,629,302,144,977 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 79 x 629 x 151 x 72 x 977 = 1055630038608

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 158,629,302,144,977 is 1055630038608.

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.

158 x 629 x 302 x 144 x 977 = 4222520154432

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.

158 : 1, 2, 79, 158

629 : 1, 17, 37, 629

302 : 1, 2, 151, 302

144 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 16, 18, 24, 36, 48, 72, 144

977 : 1, 977

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 158,629,302,144,977, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

158:2x 79

629:17x 37

302:2x 151

144:2x 2x 2x 2x 3x 3

977:977

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

2x 2 = 4

Therefore, the value for common factors is 4.

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 = 4222520154432/(1x4)

LCM = 4222520154432/4

LCM = 1055630038608

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 158,629,302,144,977 is 1055630038608.
