Given numbers are 982,278,982,120

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

The LCM of 982,278,982,120 is 8189880.

Find LCM of 982,278,982,120 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 491 x 1 x 139 x 1 x 60 = 8189880

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 982,278,982,120 is 8189880.

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 278 x 982 x 120 = 32169848640

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

278 : 1, 2, 139, 278

982 : 1, 2, 491, 982

120 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 20, 24, 30, 40, 60, 120

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 982,278,982,120, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

982:2x 491

278:2x 139

982:2x 491

120:2x 2x 2x 3x 5

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 491 = 1964

Therefore, the value for common factors is 1964.

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 = 32169848640/(2x1964)

LCM = 32169848640/3928

LCM = 8189880

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 982,278,982,120 is 8189880.
