Given numbers are 971,178,267,903

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

The LCM of 971,178,267,903 is 156072714.

Find LCM of 971,178,267,903 with Prime Factorization

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

3 x 89 x 971 x 2 x 1 x 301 = 156072714

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 971,178,267,903 is 156072714.

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 178 x 267 x 903 = 41671414638

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

178 : 1, 2, 89, 178

267 : 1, 3, 89, 267

903 : 1, 3, 7, 21, 43, 129, 301, 903

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 971,178,267,903, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

971:971

178:2x 89

267:3x 89

903:3x 7x 43

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

3x 89 = 267

Therefore, the value for common factors is 267.

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 = 41671414638/(1x267)

LCM = 41671414638/267

LCM = 156072714

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 971,178,267,903 is 156072714.
