Given numbers are 916,862,998,998

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

The LCM of 916,862,998,998 is 197003204.

Find LCM of 916,862,998,998 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 499 x 458 x 431 x 1 x 1 = 197003204

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 916,862,998,998 is 197003204.

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.

916 x 862 x 998 x 998 = 786436790368

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.

916 : 1, 2, 4, 229, 458, 916

862 : 1, 2, 431, 862

998 : 1, 2, 499, 998

998 : 1, 2, 499, 998

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 916,862,998,998, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

916:2x 2x 229

862:2x 431

998:2x 499

998:2x 499

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 499 = 1996

Therefore, the value for common factors is 1996.

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 = 786436790368/(2x1996)

LCM = 786436790368/3992

LCM = 197003204

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 916,862,998,998 is 197003204.
