Given numbers are 971,485,688,164

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

The LCM of 971,485,688,164 is 13284134480.

Find LCM of 971,485,688,164 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 971 x 485 x 172 x 41 = 13284134480

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 971,485,688,164 is 13284134480.

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 485 x 688 x 164 = 53136537920

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

485 : 1, 5, 97, 485

688 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 43, 86, 172, 344, 688

164 : 1, 2, 4, 41, 82, 164

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 971,485,688,164, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

971:971

485:5x 97

688:2x 2x 2x 2x 43

164:2x 2x 41

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 = 53136537920/(1x4)

LCM = 53136537920/4

LCM = 13284134480

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 971,485,688,164 is 13284134480.
