Given numbers are 187,973,843,974,520

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

The LCM of 187,973,843,974,520 is 38843139655320.

Find LCM of 187,973,843,974,520 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 187 x 973 x 843 x 487 x 260 = 38843139655320

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 187,973,843,974,520 is 38843139655320.

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.

187 x 973 x 843 x 974 x 520 = 77686279310640

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.

187 : 1, 11, 17, 187

973 : 1, 7, 139, 973

843 : 1, 3, 281, 843

974 : 1, 2, 487, 974

520 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 13, 20, 26, 40, 52, 65, 104, 130, 260, 520

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 187,973,843,974,520, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

187:11x 17

973:7x 139

843:3x 281

974:2x 487

520:2x 2x 2x 5x 13

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

2 = 2

Therefore, the value for common factors is 2.

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 = 77686279310640/(1x2)

LCM = 77686279310640/2

LCM = 38843139655320

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 187,973,843,974,520 is 38843139655320.
