Given numbers are 388,689,950,431

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

The LCM of 388,689,950,431 is 54729543700.

Find LCM of 388,689,950,431 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 194 x 689 x 475 x 431 = 54729543700

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 388,689,950,431 is 54729543700.

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.

388 x 689 x 950 x 431 = 109459087400

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.

388 : 1, 2, 4, 97, 194, 388

689 : 1, 13, 53, 689

950 : 1, 2, 5, 10, 19, 25, 38, 50, 95, 190, 475, 950

431 : 1, 431

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 388,689,950,431, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

388:2x 2x 97

689:13x 53

950:2x 5x 5x 19

431:431

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

2 = 2

Therefore, the value for common factors is 2.

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 = 109459087400/(1x2)

LCM = 109459087400/2

LCM = 54729543700

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 388,689,950,431 is 54729543700.
