Given numbers are 538,674,943

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

The LCM of 538,674,943 is 170971558.

Find LCM of 538,674,943 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 269 x 337 x 943 = 170971558

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 538,674,943 is 170971558.

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.

538 x 674 x 943 = 341943116

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.

538 : 1, 2, 269, 538

674 : 1, 2, 337, 674

943 : 1, 23, 41, 943

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 538,674,943, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

538:2x 269

674:2x 337

943:23x 41

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

2 = 2

Therefore, the value for common factors is 2.

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 = 341943116/(1x2)

LCM = 341943116/2

LCM = 170971558

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 538,674,943 is 170971558.

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

• LCM of 533, 247, 938
