Given numbers are 979,696,474,228,966

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

The LCM of 979,696,474,228,966 is 164663938824.

Find LCM of 979,696,474,228,966 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 3 x 979 x 58 x 79 x 19 x 161 = 164663938824

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 979,696,474,228,966 is 164663938824.

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 696 x 474 x 228 x 966 = 71134821571968

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

696 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 29, 58, 87, 116, 174, 232, 348, 696

474 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 79, 158, 237, 474

228 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 19, 38, 57, 76, 114, 228

966 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21, 23, 42, 46, 69, 138, 161, 322, 483, 966

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 979,696,474,228,966, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

979:11x 89

696:2x 2x 2x 3x 29

474:2x 3x 79

228:2x 2x 3x 19

966:2x 3x 7x 23

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 2x 3x 3x 3 = 432

Therefore, the value for common factors is 432.

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 = 71134821571968/(1x432)

LCM = 71134821571968/432

LCM = 164663938824

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 979,696,474,228,966 is 164663938824.
