Given numbers are 983,442,160,509

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

The LCM of 983,442,160,509 is 17692269920.

Find LCM of 983,442,160,509 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 983 x 221 x 80 x 509 = 17692269920

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 983,442,160,509 is 17692269920.

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.

983 x 442 x 160 x 509 = 35384539840

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.

983 : 1, 983

442 : 1, 2, 13, 17, 26, 34, 221, 442

160 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, 32, 40, 80, 160

509 : 1, 509

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 983,442,160,509, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

983:983

442:2x 13x 17

160:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 5

509:509

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

2 = 2

Therefore, the value for common factors is 2.

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 = 35384539840/(1x2)

LCM = 35384539840/2

LCM = 17692269920

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 983,442,160,509 is 17692269920.
