Given numbers are 788,146,986,974

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

The LCM of 788,146,986,974 is 13810994684.

Find LCM of 788,146,986,974 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 394 x 73 x 493 x 487 = 13810994684

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 788,146,986,974 is 13810994684.

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.

788 x 146 x 986 x 974 = 110487957472

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.

788 : 1, 2, 4, 197, 394, 788

146 : 1, 2, 73, 146

986 : 1, 2, 17, 29, 34, 58, 493, 986

974 : 1, 2, 487, 974

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 788,146,986,974, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

788:2x 2x 197

146:2x 73

986:2x 17x 29

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 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 = 110487957472/(2x4)

LCM = 110487957472/8

LCM = 13810994684

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 788,146,986,974 is 13810994684.
