Given numbers are 956,860,394,532

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

The LCM of 956,860,394,532 is 5385353540.

Find LCM of 956,860,394,532 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 239 x 215 x 197 x 133 = 5385353540

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 956,860,394,532 is 5385353540.

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 860 x 394 x 532 = 172331313280

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

860 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 43, 86, 172, 215, 430, 860

394 : 1, 2, 197, 394

532 : 1, 2, 4, 7, 14, 19, 28, 38, 76, 133, 266, 532

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 956,860,394,532, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

956:2x 2x 239

860:2x 2x 5x 43

394:2x 197

532:2x 2x 7x 19

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 2 = 16

Therefore, the value for common factors is 16.

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 = 172331313280/(2x16)

LCM = 172331313280/32

LCM = 5385353540

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 956,860,394,532 is 5385353540.
