Given numbers are 646,981,982,421

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

The LCM of 646,981,982,421 is 130998135186.

Find LCM of 646,981,982,421 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 323 x 981 x 491 x 421 = 130998135186

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 646,981,982,421 is 130998135186.

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.

646 x 981 x 982 x 421 = 261996270372

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.

646 : 1, 2, 17, 19, 34, 38, 323, 646

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

982 : 1, 2, 491, 982

421 : 1, 421

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 646,981,982,421, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

646:2x 17x 19

981:3x 3x 109

982:2x 491

421:421

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 = 261996270372/(1x2)

LCM = 261996270372/2

LCM = 130998135186

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 646,981,982,421 is 130998135186.
