Given numbers are 257,984,122,697

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

The LCM of 257,984,122,697 is 262244856.

Find LCM of 257,984,122,697 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 41 x 257 x 12 x 61 x 17 = 262244856

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 257,984,122,697 is 262244856.

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.

257 x 984 x 122 x 697 = 21504078192

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.

257 : 1, 257

984 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 41, 82, 123, 164, 246, 328, 492, 984

122 : 1, 2, 61, 122

697 : 1, 17, 41, 697

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 257,984,122,697, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

257:257

984:2x 2x 2x 3x 41

122:2x 61

697:17x 41

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

2x 41 = 82

Therefore, the value for common factors is 82.

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 = 21504078192/(1x82)

LCM = 21504078192/82

LCM = 262244856

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 257,984,122,697 is 262244856.
