Given numbers are 978,539,473,782

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

The LCM of 978,539,473,782 is 8862838446.

Find LCM of 978,539,473,782 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 11 x 489 x 49 x 43 x 391 = 8862838446

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 978,539,473,782 is 8862838446.

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 539 x 473 x 782 = 194982445812

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

539 : 1, 7, 11, 49, 77, 539

473 : 1, 11, 43, 473

782 : 1, 2, 17, 23, 34, 46, 391, 782

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 978,539,473,782, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

978:2x 3x 163

539:7x 7x 11

473:11x 43

782:2x 17x 23

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

2x 11 = 22

Therefore, the value for common factors is 22.

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 = 194982445812/(1x22)

LCM = 194982445812/22

LCM = 8862838446

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 978,539,473,782 is 8862838446.
