Given numbers are 953,742,965,146,678

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

The LCM of 953,742,965,146,678 is 16886773472730.

Find LCM of 953,742,965,146,678 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 953 x 371 x 965 x 73 x 339 = 16886773472730

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 953,742,965,146,678 is 16886773472730.

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.

953 x 742 x 965 x 146 x 678 = 67547093890920

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.

953 : 1, 953

742 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 53, 106, 371, 742

965 : 1, 5, 193, 965

146 : 1, 2, 73, 146

678 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 113, 226, 339, 678

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 953,742,965,146,678, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

953:953

742:2x 7x 53

965:5x 193

146:2x 73

678:2x 3x 113

From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.

2x 2 = 4

Therefore, the value for common factors is 4.

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 = 67547093890920/(1x4)

LCM = 67547093890920/4

LCM = 16886773472730

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 953,742,965,146,678 is 16886773472730.
