Given numbers are 971,818,982,342

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

The LCM of 971,818,982,342 is 66688375158.

Find LCM of 971,818,982,342 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 971 x 409 x 491 x 171 = 66688375158

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 971,818,982,342 is 66688375158.

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 818 x 982 x 342 = 266753500632

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

818 : 1, 2, 409, 818

982 : 1, 2, 491, 982

342 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 19, 38, 57, 114, 171, 342

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 971,818,982,342, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

971:971

818:2x 409

982:2x 491

342:2x 3x 3x 19

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 = 266753500632/(1x4)

LCM = 266753500632/4

LCM = 66688375158

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 971,818,982,342 is 66688375158.
