Given numbers are 864,326,249,988

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

The LCM of 864,326,249,988 is 2887196832.

Find LCM of 864,326,249,988 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 3 x 72 x 163 x 83 x 247 = 2887196832

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 864,326,249,988 is 2887196832.

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.

864 x 326 x 249 x 988 = 69292723968

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.

864 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 16, 18, 24, 27, 32, 36, 48, 54, 72, 96, 108, 144, 216, 288, 432, 864

326 : 1, 2, 163, 326

249 : 1, 3, 83, 249

988 : 1, 2, 4, 13, 19, 26, 38, 52, 76, 247, 494, 988

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 864,326,249,988, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

864:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 3x 3x 3

326:2x 163

249:3x 83

988:2x 2x 13x 19

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 3 = 24

Therefore, the value for common factors is 24.

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 = 69292723968/(1x24)

LCM = 69292723968/24

LCM = 2887196832

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 864,326,249,988 is 2887196832.
