Given numbers are 978,362,516,863

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

The LCM of 978,362,516,863 is 13137921924.

Find LCM of 978,362,516,863 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3 x 163 x 181 x 86 x 863 = 13137921924

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 978,362,516,863 is 13137921924.

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.

978 x 362 x 516 x 863 = 157655063088

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.

978 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 163, 326, 489, 978

362 : 1, 2, 181, 362

516 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 43, 86, 129, 172, 258, 516

863 : 1, 863

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 978,362,516,863, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

978:2x 3x 163

362:2x 181

516:2x 2x 3x 43

863:863

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 3 = 12

Therefore, the value for common factors is 12.

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 = 157655063088/(1x12)

LCM = 157655063088/12

LCM = 13137921924

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 978,362,516,863 is 13137921924.
