Given numbers are 797,987,461,236,946

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

The LCM of 797,987,461,236,946 is 40480842552612.

Find LCM of 797,987,461,236,946 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 797 x 987 x 461 x 118 x 473 = 40480842552612

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 797,987,461,236,946 is 40480842552612.

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.

797 x 987 x 461 x 236 x 946 = 80961685105224

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.

797 : 1, 797

987 : 1, 3, 7, 21, 47, 141, 329, 987

461 : 1, 461

236 : 1, 2, 4, 59, 118, 236

946 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 43, 86, 473, 946

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 797,987,461,236,946, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

797:797

987:3x 7x 47

461:461

236:2x 2x 59

946:2x 11x 43

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 = 80961685105224/(1x2)

LCM = 80961685105224/2

LCM = 40480842552612

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 797,987,461,236,946 is 40480842552612.
