Given numbers are 186,502,103,982

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

The LCM of 186,502,103,982 is 2361051078.

Find LCM of 186,502,103,982 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 93 x 251 x 103 x 491 = 2361051078

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 186,502,103,982 is 2361051078.

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.

186 x 502 x 103 x 982 = 9444204312

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.

186 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 31, 62, 93, 186

502 : 1, 2, 251, 502

103 : 1, 103

982 : 1, 2, 491, 982

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 186,502,103,982, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

186:2x 3x 31

502:2x 251

103:103

982:2x 491

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 = 9444204312/(1x4)

LCM = 9444204312/4

LCM = 2361051078

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 186,502,103,982 is 2361051078.
