Given numbers are 947,386,652,978

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

The LCM of 947,386,652,978 is 357500076.

Find LCM of 947,386,652,978 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 163 x 947 x 193 x 2 x 3 = 357500076

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 947,386,652,978 is 357500076.

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.

947 x 386 x 652 x 978 = 233090049552

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.

947 : 1, 947

386 : 1, 2, 193, 386

652 : 1, 2, 4, 163, 326, 652

978 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 163, 326, 489, 978

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 947,386,652,978, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

947:947

386:2x 193

652:2x 2x 163

978:2x 3x 163

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 163 = 652

Therefore, the value for common factors is 652.

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 = 233090049552/(1x652)

LCM = 233090049552/652

LCM = 357500076

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 947,386,652,978 is 357500076.
