Given numbers are 908,972,968,298

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

The LCM of 908,972,968,298 is 7955981352.

Find LCM of 908,972,968,298 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 227 x 243 x 242 x 149 = 7955981352

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 908,972,968,298 is 7955981352.

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.

908 x 972 x 968 x 298 = 254591403264

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.

908 : 1, 2, 4, 227, 454, 908

972 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 27, 36, 54, 81, 108, 162, 243, 324, 486, 972

968 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 11, 22, 44, 88, 121, 242, 484, 968

298 : 1, 2, 149, 298

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 908,972,968,298, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

908:2x 2x 227

972:2x 2x 3x 3x 3x 3x 3

968:2x 2x 2x 11x 11

298:2x 149

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 = 254591403264/(2x16)

LCM = 254591403264/32

LCM = 7955981352

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 908,972,968,298 is 7955981352.
