Given numbers are 952,128,968,538,170

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

The LCM of 952,128,968,538,170 is 2478931840.

Find LCM of 952,128,968,538,170 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 2 x 17 x 7 x 16 x 121 x 269 x 5 = 2478931840

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 952,128,968,538,170 is 2478931840.

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.

952 x 128 x 968 x 538 x 170 = 10788311367680

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.

952 : 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 17, 28, 34, 56, 68, 119, 136, 238, 476, 952

128 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128

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

538 : 1, 2, 269, 538

170 : 1, 2, 5, 10, 17, 34, 85, 170

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 952,128,968,538,170, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

952:2x 2x 2x 7x 17

128:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 2

968:2x 2x 2x 11x 11

538:2x 269

170:2x 5x 17

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 2x 2x 2x 2x 17 = 2176

Therefore, the value for common factors is 2176.

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 = 10788311367680/(2x2176)

LCM = 10788311367680/4352

LCM = 2478931840

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 952,128,968,538,170 is 2478931840.
