Given numbers are 658,694,242,978

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

The LCM of 658,694,242,978 is 13509821094.

Find LCM of 658,694,242,978 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 329 x 347 x 121 x 489 = 13509821094

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 658,694,242,978 is 13509821094.

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.

658 x 694 x 242 x 978 = 108078568752

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.

658 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 47, 94, 329, 658

694 : 1, 2, 347, 694

242 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 121, 242

978 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 163, 326, 489, 978

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 658,694,242,978, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

658:2x 7x 47

694:2x 347

242:2x 11x 11

978:2x 3x 163

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

2x 2 = 4

Therefore, the value for common factors is 4.

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 = 108078568752/(2x4)

LCM = 108078568752/8

LCM = 13509821094

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 658,694,242,978 is 13509821094.
