Given numbers are 978,678,940,593,326

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

The LCM of 978,678,940,593,326 is 30801356940.

Find LCM of 978,678,940,593,326 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3 x 163 x 1 x 113 x 470 x 593 x 1 = 30801356940

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 978,678,940,593,326 is 30801356940.

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 678 x 940 x 593 x 326 = 120494908349280

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

678 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 113, 226, 339, 678

940 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 47, 94, 188, 235, 470, 940

593 : 1, 593

326 : 1, 2, 163, 326

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 978,678,940,593,326, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

978:2x 3x 163

678:2x 3x 113

940:2x 2x 5x 47

593:593

326:2x 163

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 2x 3x 163 = 3912

Therefore, the value for common factors is 3912.

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 = 120494908349280/(1x3912)

LCM = 120494908349280/3912

LCM = 30801356940

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 978,678,940,593,326 is 30801356940.
