Given numbers are 317,782,831,986

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

The LCM of 317,782,831,986 is 5973997506.

Find LCM of 317,782,831,986 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 17 x 317 x 23 x 831 x 29 = 5973997506

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 317,782,831,986 is 5973997506.

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.

317 x 782 x 831 x 986 = 203115915204

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.

317 : 1, 317

782 : 1, 2, 17, 23, 34, 46, 391, 782

831 : 1, 3, 277, 831

986 : 1, 2, 17, 29, 34, 58, 493, 986

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 317,782,831,986, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

317:317

782:2x 17x 23

831:3x 277

986:2x 17x 29

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

2x 17 = 34

Therefore, the value for common factors is 34.

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 = 203115915204/(1x34)

LCM = 203115915204/34

LCM = 5973997506

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 317,782,831,986 is 5973997506.
