Given numbers are 960,473,544,987

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

The LCM of 960,473,544,987 is 2539669440.

Find LCM of 960,473,544,987 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 10 x 473 x 17 x 329 = 2539669440

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 960,473,544,987 is 2539669440.

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.

960 x 473 x 544 x 987 = 243808266240

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.

960 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 16, 20, 24, 30, 32, 40, 48, 60, 64, 80, 96, 120, 160, 192, 240, 320, 480, 960

473 : 1, 11, 43, 473

544 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 17, 32, 34, 68, 136, 272, 544

987 : 1, 3, 7, 21, 47, 141, 329, 987

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 960,473,544,987, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

960:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 3x 5

473:11x 43

544:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 17

987:3x 7x 47

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 3 = 96

Therefore, the value for common factors is 96.

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 = 243808266240/(1x96)

LCM = 243808266240/96

LCM = 2539669440

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 960,473,544,987 is 2539669440.
