Given numbers are 950,872,947,659

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

The LCM of 950,872,947,659 is 258491036600.

Find LCM of 950,872,947,659 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 475 x 436 x 947 x 659 = 258491036600

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 950,872,947,659 is 258491036600.

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.

950 x 872 x 947 x 659 = 516982073200

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.

950 : 1, 2, 5, 10, 19, 25, 38, 50, 95, 190, 475, 950

872 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 109, 218, 436, 872

947 : 1, 947

659 : 1, 659

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 950,872,947,659, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

950:2x 5x 5x 19

872:2x 2x 2x 109

947:947

659:659

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 = 516982073200/(1x2)

LCM = 516982073200/2

LCM = 258491036600

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 950,872,947,659 is 258491036600.
