Given numbers are 956,377,296,687

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

The LCM of 956,377,296,687 is 18322625256.

Find LCM of 956,377,296,687 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 239 x 377 x 74 x 687 = 18322625256

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 956,377,296,687 is 18322625256.

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.

956 x 377 x 296 x 687 = 73290501024

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.

956 : 1, 2, 4, 239, 478, 956

377 : 1, 13, 29, 377

296 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 37, 74, 148, 296

687 : 1, 3, 229, 687

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 956,377,296,687, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

956:2x 2x 239

377:13x 29

296:2x 2x 2x 37

687:3x 229

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 = 73290501024/(1x4)

LCM = 73290501024/4

LCM = 18322625256

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 956,377,296,687 is 18322625256.
