Given numbers are 508,457,959,988

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

The LCM of 508,457,959,988 is 54991488188.

Find LCM of 508,457,959,988 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 127 x 457 x 959 x 247 = 54991488188

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 508,457,959,988 is 54991488188.

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.

508 x 457 x 959 x 988 = 219965952752

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.

508 : 1, 2, 4, 127, 254, 508

457 : 1, 457

959 : 1, 7, 137, 959

988 : 1, 2, 4, 13, 19, 26, 38, 52, 76, 247, 494, 988

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 508,457,959,988, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

508:2x 2x 127

457:457

959:7x 137

988:2x 2x 13x 19

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 = 219965952752/(1x4)

LCM = 219965952752/4

LCM = 54991488188

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 508,457,959,988 is 54991488188.
