Given numbers are 838,548,961,685

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

The LCM of 838,548,961,685 is 1103285660.

Find LCM of 838,548,961,685 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 137 x 419 x 2 x 961 x 5 = 1103285660

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 838,548,961,685 is 1103285660.

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.

838 x 548 x 961 x 685 = 302300270840

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.

838 : 1, 2, 419, 838

548 : 1, 2, 4, 137, 274, 548

961 : 1, 31, 961

685 : 1, 5, 137, 685

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 838,548,961,685, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

838:2x 419

548:2x 2x 137

961:31x 31

685:5x 137

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

2x 137 = 274

Therefore, the value for common factors is 274.

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 = 302300270840/(1x274)

LCM = 302300270840/274

LCM = 1103285660

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 838,548,961,685 is 1103285660.
