Given numbers are 982,138,348,262

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

The LCM of 982,138,348,262 is 514825284.

Find LCM of 982,138,348,262 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3 x 491 x 23 x 58 x 131 = 514825284

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 982,138,348,262 is 514825284.

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.

982 x 138 x 348 x 262 = 12355806816

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.

982 : 1, 2, 491, 982

138 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 23, 46, 69, 138

348 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 29, 58, 87, 116, 174, 348

262 : 1, 2, 131, 262

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 982,138,348,262, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

982:2x 491

138:2x 3x 23

348:2x 2x 3x 29

262:2x 131

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 3 = 12

Therefore, the value for common factors is 12.

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 = 12355806816/(2x12)

LCM = 12355806816/24

LCM = 514825284

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 982,138,348,262 is 514825284.
