Given numbers are 979,148,146,657

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

The LCM of 979,148,146,657 is 95194044.

Find LCM of 979,148,146,657 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 73 x 979 x 74 x 1 x 9 = 95194044

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 979,148,146,657 is 95194044.

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.

979 x 148 x 146 x 657 = 13898330424

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.

979 : 1, 11, 89, 979

148 : 1, 2, 4, 37, 74, 148

146 : 1, 2, 73, 146

657 : 1, 3, 9, 73, 219, 657

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 979,148,146,657, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

979:11x 89

148:2x 2x 37

146:2x 73

657:3x 3x 73

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

2x 73 = 146

Therefore, the value for common factors is 146.

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 = 13898330424/(1x146)

LCM = 13898330424/146

LCM = 95194044

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 979,148,146,657 is 95194044.
