Given numbers are 331,545,872,971

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

The LCM of 331,545,872,971 is 1401308360.

Find LCM of 331,545,872,971 with Prime Factorization

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

109 x 331 x 5 x 8 x 971 = 1401308360

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 331,545,872,971 is 1401308360.

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.

331 x 545 x 872 x 971 = 152742611240

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.

331 : 1, 331

545 : 1, 5, 109, 545

872 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 109, 218, 436, 872

971 : 1, 971

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 331,545,872,971, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

331:331

545:5x 109

872:2x 2x 2x 109

971:971

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

109 = 109

Therefore, the value for common factors is 109.

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 = 152742611240/(1x109)

LCM = 152742611240/109

LCM = 1401308360

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 331,545,872,971 is 1401308360.
