Given numbers are 553,981,872,862

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

The LCM of 553,981,872,862 is 1870515864.

Find LCM of 553,981,872,862 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 109 x 553 x 9 x 4 x 431 = 1870515864

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 553,981,872,862 is 1870515864.

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.

553 x 981 x 872 x 862 = 407772458352

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.

553 : 1, 7, 79, 553

981 : 1, 3, 9, 109, 327, 981

872 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 109, 218, 436, 872

862 : 1, 2, 431, 862

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 553,981,872,862, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

553:7x 79

981:3x 3x 109

872:2x 2x 2x 109

862:2x 431

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

2x 109 = 218

Therefore, the value for common factors is 218.

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 = 407772458352/(1x218)

LCM = 407772458352/218

LCM = 1870515864

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 553,981,872,862 is 1870515864.
