Given numbers are 971,116,988,556,556

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

The LCM of 971,116,988,556,556 is 3867131788.

Find LCM of 971,116,988,556,556 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 139 x 971 x 29 x 247 x 1 x 1 = 3867131788

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 971,116,988,556,556 is 3867131788.

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.

971 x 116 x 988 x 556 x 556 = 34402004386048

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.

971 : 1, 971

116 : 1, 2, 4, 29, 58, 116

988 : 1, 2, 4, 13, 19, 26, 38, 52, 76, 247, 494, 988

556 : 1, 2, 4, 139, 278, 556

556 : 1, 2, 4, 139, 278, 556

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 971,116,988,556,556, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

971:971

116:2x 2x 29

988:2x 2x 13x 19

556:2x 2x 139

556:2x 2x 139

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 139 = 8896

Therefore, the value for common factors is 8896.

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 = 34402004386048/(1x8896)

LCM = 34402004386048/8896

LCM = 3867131788

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 971,116,988,556,556 is 3867131788.
