Given numbers are 956,903,491,982

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

The LCM of 956,903,491,982 is 423864588.

Find LCM of 956,903,491,982 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 491 x 478 x 903 x 1 x 1 = 423864588

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 956,903,491,982 is 423864588.

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 903 x 491 x 982 = 416235025416

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

903 : 1, 3, 7, 21, 43, 129, 301, 903

491 : 1, 491

982 : 1, 2, 491, 982

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 956,903,491,982, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

956:2x 2x 239

903:3x 7x 43

491:491

982:2x 491

From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.

2x 491 = 982

Therefore, the value for common factors is 982.

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 = 416235025416/(1x982)

LCM = 416235025416/982

LCM = 423864588

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 956,903,491,982 is 423864588.
