Given numbers are 978,937,326,388

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

The LCM of 978,937,326,388 is 177778884.

Find LCM of 978,937,326,388 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 163 x 3 x 937 x 1 x 194 = 177778884

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 978,937,326,388 is 177778884.

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 937 x 326 x 388 = 115911832368

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

937 : 1, 937

326 : 1, 2, 163, 326

388 : 1, 2, 4, 97, 194, 388

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 978,937,326,388, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

978:2x 3x 163

937:937

326:2x 163

388:2x 2x 97

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 = 115911832368/(1x652)

LCM = 115911832368/652

LCM = 177778884

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 978,937,326,388 is 177778884.
