Given numbers are 394,407,956,962

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

The LCM of 394,407,956,962 is 996464612.

Find LCM of 394,407,956,962 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 37 x 197 x 11 x 478 x 13 = 996464612

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 394,407,956,962 is 996464612.

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.

394 x 407 x 956 x 962 = 147476762576

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.

394 : 1, 2, 197, 394

407 : 1, 11, 37, 407

956 : 1, 2, 4, 239, 478, 956

962 : 1, 2, 13, 26, 37, 74, 481, 962

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 394,407,956,962, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

394:2x 197

407:11x 37

956:2x 2x 239

962:2x 13x 37

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 37 = 148

Therefore, the value for common factors is 148.

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 = 147476762576/(1x148)

LCM = 147476762576/148

LCM = 996464612

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 394,407,956,962 is 996464612.
