Given numbers are 974,236,433,656

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

The LCM of 974,236,433,656 is 8161551184.

Find LCM of 974,236,433,656 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 487 x 59 x 433 x 164 = 8161551184

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 974,236,433,656 is 8161551184.

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.

974 x 236 x 433 x 656 = 65292409472

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.

974 : 1, 2, 487, 974

236 : 1, 2, 4, 59, 118, 236

433 : 1, 433

656 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 41, 82, 164, 328, 656

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 974,236,433,656, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

974:2x 487

236:2x 2x 59

433:433

656:2x 2x 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 2x 2 = 8

Therefore, the value for common factors is 8.

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 = 65292409472/(1x8)

LCM = 65292409472/8

LCM = 8161551184

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 974,236,433,656 is 8161551184.
