Given numbers are 985,434,296,251

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

The LCM of 985,434,296,251 is 15880398520.

Find LCM of 985,434,296,251 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 985 x 217 x 148 x 251 = 15880398520

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 985,434,296,251 is 15880398520.

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.

985 x 434 x 296 x 251 = 31760797040

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.

985 : 1, 5, 197, 985

434 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 31, 62, 217, 434

296 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 37, 74, 148, 296

251 : 1, 251

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 985,434,296,251, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

985:5x 197

434:2x 7x 31

296:2x 2x 2x 37

251:251

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 = 31760797040/(1x2)

LCM = 31760797040/2

LCM = 15880398520

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 985,434,296,251 is 15880398520.
