Given numbers are 235,472,145,987

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

The LCM of 235,472,145,987 is 67550280.

Find LCM of 235,472,145,987 with Prime Factorization

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

5 x 47 x 1 x 472 x 29 x 21 = 67550280

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 235,472,145,987 is 67550280.

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.

235 x 472 x 145 x 987 = 15874315800

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.

235 : 1, 5, 47, 235

472 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 59, 118, 236, 472

145 : 1, 5, 29, 145

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 235,472,145,987, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

235:5x 47

472:2x 2x 2x 59

145:5x 29

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.

5x 47 = 235

Therefore, the value for common factors is 235.

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 = 15874315800/(1x235)

LCM = 15874315800/235

LCM = 67550280

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 235,472,145,987 is 67550280.
