Given numbers are 247,972,831,879,471

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

The LCM of 247,972,831,879,471 is 3059216831268.

Find LCM of 247,972,831,879,471 with Prime Factorization

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

3 x 247 x 324 x 277 x 293 x 157 = 3059216831268

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 247,972,831,879,471 is 3059216831268.

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.

247 x 972 x 831 x 879 x 471 = 82598854444236

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.

247 : 1, 13, 19, 247

972 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 27, 36, 54, 81, 108, 162, 243, 324, 486, 972

831 : 1, 3, 277, 831

879 : 1, 3, 293, 879

471 : 1, 3, 157, 471

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 247,972,831,879,471, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

247:13x 19

972:2x 2x 3x 3x 3x 3x 3

831:3x 277

879:3x 293

471:3x 157

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

3x 3x 3 = 27

Therefore, the value for common factors is 27.

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 = 82598854444236/(1x27)

LCM = 82598854444236/27

LCM = 3059216831268

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 247,972,831,879,471 is 3059216831268.
