Given numbers are 973,860,143,228

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

The LCM of 973,860,143,228 is 6820593780.

Find LCM of 973,860,143,228 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 973 x 215 x 143 x 57 = 6820593780

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 973,860,143,228 is 6820593780.

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.

973 x 860 x 143 x 228 = 27282375120

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.

973 : 1, 7, 139, 973

860 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 43, 86, 172, 215, 430, 860

143 : 1, 11, 13, 143

228 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 19, 38, 57, 76, 114, 228

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 973,860,143,228, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

973:7x 139

860:2x 2x 5x 43

143:11x 13

228:2x 2x 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 = 27282375120/(1x4)

LCM = 27282375120/4

LCM = 6820593780

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 973,860,143,228 is 6820593780.
