Given numbers are 388,884,124,271

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

The LCM of 388,884,124,271 is 720368948.

Find LCM of 388,884,124,271 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 97 x 221 x 31 x 271 = 720368948

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 388,884,124,271 is 720368948.

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 884 x 124 x 271 = 11525903168

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

884 : 1, 2, 4, 13, 17, 26, 34, 52, 68, 221, 442, 884

124 : 1, 2, 4, 31, 62, 124

271 : 1, 271

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 388,884,124,271, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

388:2x 2x 97

884:2x 2x 13x 17

124:2x 2x 31

271:271

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

2x 2x 2x 2 = 16

Therefore, the value for common factors is 16.

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 = 11525903168/(1x16)

LCM = 11525903168/16

LCM = 720368948

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 388,884,124,271 is 720368948.
