Given numbers are 978,698,235,652

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

The LCM of 978,698,235,652 is 160421340.

Find LCM of 978,698,235,652 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 163 x 3 x 349 x 235 x 2 = 160421340

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 978,698,235,652 is 160421340.

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 698 x 235 x 652 = 104594713680

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

698 : 1, 2, 349, 698

235 : 1, 5, 47, 235

652 : 1, 2, 4, 163, 326, 652

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 978,698,235,652, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

978:2x 3x 163

698:2x 349

235:5x 47

652:2x 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 163 = 652

Therefore, the value for common factors is 652.

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 = 104594713680/(1x652)

LCM = 104594713680/652

LCM = 160421340

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 978,698,235,652 is 160421340.
