Given numbers are 859,538,194,987

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

The LCM of 859,538,194,987 is 44245012938.

Find LCM of 859,538,194,987 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 859 x 269 x 97 x 987 = 44245012938

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 859,538,194,987 is 44245012938.

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.

859 x 538 x 194 x 987 = 88490025876

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.

859 : 1, 859

538 : 1, 2, 269, 538

194 : 1, 2, 97, 194

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

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 859,538,194,987, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

859:859

538:2x 269

194:2x 97

987:3x 7x 47

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 = 88490025876/(1x2)

LCM = 88490025876/2

LCM = 44245012938

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 859,538,194,987 is 44245012938.
