Given numbers are 966,872,305

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

The LCM of 966,872,305 is 128458680.

Find LCM of 966,872,305 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 483 x 436 x 305 = 128458680

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 966,872,305 is 128458680.

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 872 x 305 = 256917360

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

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

305 : 1, 5, 61, 305

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 966,872,305, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

966:2x 3x 7x 23

872:2x 2x 2x 109

305:5x 61

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 = 256917360/(1x2)

LCM = 256917360/2

LCM = 128458680

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 966,872,305 is 128458680.
