Given numbers are 986,228,982,491

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

The LCM of 986,228,982,491 is 55190364.

Find LCM of 986,228,982,491 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 491 x 493 x 114 x 1 x 1 = 55190364

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 986,228,982,491 is 55190364.

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.

986 x 228 x 982 x 491 = 108393874896

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.

986 : 1, 2, 17, 29, 34, 58, 493, 986

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

982 : 1, 2, 491, 982

491 : 1, 491

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 986,228,982,491, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

986:2x 17x 29

228:2x 2x 3x 19

982:2x 491

491:491

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 = 108393874896/(1x1964)

LCM = 108393874896/1964

LCM = 55190364

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 986,228,982,491 is 55190364.
