Given numbers are 960,539,534,972,856

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

The LCM of 960,539,534,972,856 is 399134070720.

Find LCM of 960,539,534,972,856 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 40 x 539 x 89 x 81 x 107 = 399134070720

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 960,539,534,972,856 is 399134070720.

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 539 x 534 x 972 x 856 = 229901224734720

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

539 : 1, 7, 11, 49, 77, 539

534 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 89, 178, 267, 534

972 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 27, 36, 54, 81, 108, 162, 243, 324, 486, 972

856 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 107, 214, 428, 856

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 960,539,534,972,856, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

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

539:7x 7x 11

534:2x 3x 89

972:2x 2x 3x 3x 3x 3x 3

856:2x 2x 2x 107

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 3 = 576

Therefore, the value for common factors is 576.

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 = 229901224734720/(1x576)

LCM = 229901224734720/576

LCM = 399134070720

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 960,539,534,972,856 is 399134070720.
