Given numbers are 966,682,557

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

The LCM of 966,682,557 is 183479142.

Find LCM of 966,682,557 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 483 x 341 x 557 = 183479142

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 966,682,557 is 183479142.

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.

966 x 682 x 557 = 366958284

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.

966 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21, 23, 42, 46, 69, 138, 161, 322, 483, 966

682 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 31, 62, 341, 682

557 : 1, 557

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 966,682,557, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

966:2x 3x 7x 23

682:2x 11x 31

557:557

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

2 = 2

Therefore, the value for common factors is 2.

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 = 366958284/(1x2)

LCM = 366958284/2

LCM = 183479142

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 966,682,557 is 183479142.

Here are some samples of LCM of two or more Numbers calculations.

• LCM of 737, 262, 235
