Given numbers are 524,992,972,979

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

The LCM of 524,992,972,979 is 30915190944.

Find LCM of 524,992,972,979 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 131 x 248 x 243 x 979 = 30915190944

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 524,992,972,979 is 30915190944.

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.

524 x 992 x 972 x 979 = 494643055104

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.

524 : 1, 2, 4, 131, 262, 524

992 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 31, 32, 62, 124, 248, 496, 992

972 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 27, 36, 54, 81, 108, 162, 243, 324, 486, 972

979 : 1, 11, 89, 979

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 524,992,972,979, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

524:2x 2x 131

992:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 31

972:2x 2x 3x 3x 3x 3x 3

979:11x 89

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 = 494643055104/(1x16)

LCM = 494643055104/16

LCM = 30915190944

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 524,992,972,979 is 30915190944.
