Given numbers are 224,848,456,987

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

The LCM of 224,848,456,987 is 31805088.

Find LCM of 224,848,456,987 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 7 x 2 x 53 x 19 x 47 = 31805088

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 224,848,456,987 is 31805088.

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.

224 x 848 x 456 x 987 = 85492076544

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.

224 : 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 16, 28, 32, 56, 112, 224

848 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 53, 106, 212, 424, 848

456 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 19, 24, 38, 57, 76, 114, 152, 228, 456

987 : 1, 3, 7, 21, 47, 141, 329, 987

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 224,848,456,987, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

224:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 7

848:2x 2x 2x 2x 53

456:2x 2x 2x 3x 19

987:3x 7x 47

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

2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 3x 7 = 2688

Therefore, the value for common factors is 2688.

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 = 85492076544/(1x2688)

LCM = 85492076544/2688

LCM = 31805088

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 224,848,456,987 is 31805088.
