Given numbers are 976,985,226,259

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

The LCM of 976,985,226,259 is 28136123120.

Find LCM of 976,985,226,259 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 488 x 985 x 113 x 259 = 28136123120

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 976,985,226,259 is 28136123120.

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.

976 x 985 x 226 x 259 = 56272246240

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.

976 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 61, 122, 244, 488, 976

985 : 1, 5, 197, 985

226 : 1, 2, 113, 226

259 : 1, 7, 37, 259

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 976,985,226,259, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

976:2x 2x 2x 2x 61

985:5x 197

226:2x 113

259:7x 37

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

2 = 2

Therefore, the value for common factors is 2.

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 = 56272246240/(1x2)

LCM = 56272246240/2

LCM = 28136123120

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 976,985,226,259 is 28136123120.
