Given numbers are 956,872,546,364,996

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

The LCM of 956,872,546,364,996 is 4722316872.

Find LCM of 956,872,546,364,996 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 3 x 7 x 13 x 239 x 218 x 1 x 1 x 83 = 4722316872

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 956,872,546,364,996 is 4722316872.

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 872 x 546 x 364 x 996 = 165016640775168

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

872 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 109, 218, 436, 872

546 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 13, 14, 21, 26, 39, 42, 78, 91, 182, 273, 546

364 : 1, 2, 4, 7, 13, 14, 26, 28, 52, 91, 182, 364

996 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 83, 166, 249, 332, 498, 996

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 956,872,546,364,996, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

956:2x 2x 239

872:2x 2x 2x 109

546:2x 3x 7x 13

364:2x 2x 7x 13

996:2x 2x 3x 83

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 2x 2x 3x 7x 13 = 17472

Therefore, the value for common factors is 17472.

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 = 165016640775168/(2x17472)

LCM = 165016640775168/34944

LCM = 4722316872

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 956,872,546,364,996 is 4722316872.
