Given numbers are 358,278,664,971

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

The LCM of 358,278,664,971 is 16041875464.

Find LCM of 358,278,664,971 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 179 x 139 x 332 x 971 = 16041875464

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 358,278,664,971 is 16041875464.

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.

358 x 278 x 664 x 971 = 64167501856

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.

358 : 1, 2, 179, 358

278 : 1, 2, 139, 278

664 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 83, 166, 332, 664

971 : 1, 971

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 358,278,664,971, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

358:2x 179

278:2x 139

664:2x 2x 2x 83

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.

2x 2 = 4

Therefore, the value for common factors is 4.

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 = 64167501856/(1x4)

LCM = 64167501856/4

LCM = 16041875464

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 358,278,664,971 is 16041875464.
