Given numbers are 638,203,961,974

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

The LCM of 638,203,961,974 is 2090119262.

Find LCM of 638,203,961,974 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 29 x 11 x 7 x 961 x 487 = 2090119262

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 638,203,961,974 is 2090119262.

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.

638 x 203 x 961 x 974 = 121226917196

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.

638 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 29, 58, 319, 638

203 : 1, 7, 29, 203

961 : 1, 31, 961

974 : 1, 2, 487, 974

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 638,203,961,974, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

638:2x 11x 29

203:7x 29

961:31x 31

974:2x 487

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

2x 29 = 58

Therefore, the value for common factors is 58.

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 = 121226917196/(1x58)

LCM = 121226917196/58

LCM = 2090119262

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 638,203,961,974 is 2090119262.
