Given numbers are 917,173,158,596

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

The LCM of 917,173,158,596 is 7469452844.

Find LCM of 917,173,158,596 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 917 x 173 x 79 x 298 = 7469452844

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 917,173,158,596 is 7469452844.

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.

917 x 173 x 158 x 596 = 14938905688

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.

917 : 1, 7, 131, 917

173 : 1, 173

158 : 1, 2, 79, 158

596 : 1, 2, 4, 149, 298, 596

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 917,173,158,596, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

917:7x 131

173:173

158:2x 79

596:2x 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.

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 = 14938905688/(1x2)

LCM = 14938905688/2

LCM = 7469452844

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 917,173,158,596 is 7469452844.
