Given numbers are 968,458,578,554

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

The LCM of 968,458,578,554 is 17745508616.

Find LCM of 968,458,578,554 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 484 x 229 x 289 x 277 = 17745508616

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 968,458,578,554 is 17745508616.

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.

968 x 458 x 578 x 554 = 141964068928

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.

968 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 11, 22, 44, 88, 121, 242, 484, 968

458 : 1, 2, 229, 458

578 : 1, 2, 17, 34, 289, 578

554 : 1, 2, 277, 554

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 968,458,578,554, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

968:2x 2x 2x 11x 11

458:2x 229

578:2x 17x 17

554:2x 277

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

2x 2 = 4

Therefore, the value for common factors is 4.

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 = 141964068928/(2x4)

LCM = 141964068928/8

LCM = 17745508616

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 968,458,578,554 is 17745508616.
