Given numbers are 956,562,717,686

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

The LCM of 956,562,717,686 is 276426444.

Find LCM of 956,562,717,686 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 239 x 2 x 281 x 3 x 343 = 276426444

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 956,562,717,686 is 276426444.

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 562 x 717 x 686 = 264263680464

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

562 : 1, 2, 281, 562

717 : 1, 3, 239, 717

686 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 49, 98, 343, 686

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 956,562,717,686, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

956:2x 2x 239

562:2x 281

717:3x 239

686:2x 7x 7x 7

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 239 = 956

Therefore, the value for common factors is 956.

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 = 264263680464/(1x956)

LCM = 264263680464/956

LCM = 276426444

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 956,562,717,686 is 276426444.
