Given numbers are 479,141,987

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

The LCM of 479,141,987 is 472773.

Find LCM of 479,141,987 with Prime Factorization

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

3 x 47 x 479 x 1 x 7 = 472773

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 479,141,987 is 472773.

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.

479 x 141 x 987 = 66660993

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.

479 : 1, 479

141 : 1, 3, 47, 141

987 : 1, 3, 7, 21, 47, 141, 329, 987

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 479,141,987, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

479:479

141:3x 47

987:3x 7x 47

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

3x 47 = 141

Therefore, the value for common factors is 141.

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 = 66660993/(1x141)

LCM = 66660993/141

LCM = 472773

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 479,141,987 is 472773.

Here are some samples of LCM of two or more Numbers calculations.

• LCM of 481, 189, 979
• LCM of 856, 107, 433
