Given numbers are 173,968,737,31

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

The LCM of 173,968,737,31 is 347822728.

Find LCM of 173,968,737,31 with Prime Factorization

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

11 x 173 x 88 x 67 x 31 = 347822728

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 173,968,737,31 is 347822728.

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.

173 x 968 x 737 x 31 = 3826050008

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.

173 : 1, 173

968 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 11, 22, 44, 88, 121, 242, 484, 968

737 : 1, 11, 67, 737

31 : 1, 31

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 173,968,737,31, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

173:173

968:2x 2x 2x 11x 11

737:11x 67

31:31

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

11 = 11

Therefore, the value for common factors is 11.

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 = 3826050008/(1x11)

LCM = 3826050008/11

LCM = 347822728

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 173,968,737,31 is 347822728.
