Given numbers are 954,659,504,858,972

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

The LCM of 954,659,504,858,972 is 67965986088.

Find LCM of 954,659,504,858,972 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 53 x 659 x 14 x 143 x 27 = 67965986088

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 954,659,504,858,972 is 67965986088.

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.

954 x 659 x 504 x 858 x 972 = 264251753910144

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.

954 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 53, 106, 159, 318, 477, 954

659 : 1, 659

504 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 12, 14, 18, 21, 24, 28, 36, 42, 56, 63, 72, 84, 126, 168, 252, 504

858 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 11, 13, 22, 26, 33, 39, 66, 78, 143, 286, 429, 858

972 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 27, 36, 54, 81, 108, 162, 243, 324, 486, 972

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 954,659,504,858,972, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

954:2x 3x 3x 53

659:659

504:2x 2x 2x 3x 3x 7

858:2x 3x 11x 13

972:2x 2x 3x 3x 3x 3x 3

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 3x 3x 3x 3x 3 = 3888

Therefore, the value for common factors is 3888.

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 = 264251753910144/(1x3888)

LCM = 264251753910144/3888

LCM = 67965986088

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 954,659,504,858,972 is 67965986088.
