Given numbers are 952,506,653

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

The LCM of 952,506,653 is 157278968.

Find LCM of 952,506,653 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 476 x 253 x 653 = 157278968

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 952,506,653 is 157278968.

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 506 x 653 = 314557936

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

506 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 23, 46, 253, 506

653 : 1, 653

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 952,506,653, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

952:2x 2x 2x 7x 17

506:2x 11x 23

653:653

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 = 314557936/(1x2)

LCM = 314557936/2

LCM = 157278968

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 952,506,653 is 157278968.

Here are some samples of LCM of two or more Numbers calculations.

• LCM of 332, 870, 457
