Given numbers are 788,916,956,857

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

The LCM of 788,916,956,857 is 36960719996.

Find LCM of 788,916,956,857 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 197 x 229 x 239 x 857 = 36960719996

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 788,916,956,857 is 36960719996.

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 916 x 956 x 857 = 591371519936

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

916 : 1, 2, 4, 229, 458, 916

956 : 1, 2, 4, 239, 478, 956

857 : 1, 857

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 788,916,956,857, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

788:2x 2x 197

916:2x 2x 229

956:2x 2x 239

857:857

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

2x 2x 2x 2 = 16

Therefore, the value for common factors is 16.

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 = 591371519936/(1x16)

LCM = 591371519936/16

LCM = 36960719996

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 788,916,956,857 is 36960719996.
