Given numbers are 987,338,283,676

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

The LCM of 987,338,283,676 is 188820996.

Find LCM of 987,338,283,676 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 13 x 13 x 987 x 1 x 283 x 2 = 188820996

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 987,338,283,676 is 188820996.

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.

987 x 338 x 283 x 676 = 63821496648

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.

987 : 1, 3, 7, 21, 47, 141, 329, 987

338 : 1, 2, 13, 26, 169, 338

283 : 1, 283

676 : 1, 2, 4, 13, 26, 52, 169, 338, 676

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 987,338,283,676, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

987:3x 7x 47

338:2x 13x 13

283:283

676:2x 2x 13x 13

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

2x 13x 13 = 338

Therefore, the value for common factors is 338.

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 = 63821496648/(1x338)

LCM = 63821496648/338

LCM = 188820996

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 987,338,283,676 is 188820996.
