Given numbers are 978,868,375,137

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

The LCM of 978,868,375,137 is 7268740500.

Find LCM of 978,868,375,137 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3 x 163 x 434 x 125 x 137 = 7268740500

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 978,868,375,137 is 7268740500.

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 868 x 375 x 137 = 43612443000

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

868 : 1, 2, 4, 7, 14, 28, 31, 62, 124, 217, 434, 868

375 : 1, 3, 5, 15, 25, 75, 125, 375

137 : 1, 137

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 978,868,375,137, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

978:2x 3x 163

868:2x 2x 7x 31

375:3x 5x 5x 5

137:137

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

2x 3 = 6

Therefore, the value for common factors is 6.

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 = 43612443000/(1x6)

LCM = 43612443000/6

LCM = 7268740500

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 978,868,375,137 is 7268740500.
