Given numbers are 178,872,682,703

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

The LCM of 178,872,682,703 is 18604422584.

Find LCM of 178,872,682,703 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 89 x 436 x 341 x 703 = 18604422584

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 178,872,682,703 is 18604422584.

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.

178 x 872 x 682 x 703 = 74417690336

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.

178 : 1, 2, 89, 178

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

682 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 31, 62, 341, 682

703 : 1, 19, 37, 703

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 178,872,682,703, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

178:2x 89

872:2x 2x 2x 109

682:2x 11x 31

703:19x 37

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 = 74417690336/(1x4)

LCM = 74417690336/4

LCM = 18604422584

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 178,872,682,703 is 18604422584.
