Given numbers are 987,472,611,163,163

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

The LCM of 987,472,611,163,163 is 987165816.

Find LCM of 987,472,611,163,163 with Prime Factorization

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

47 x 163 x 21 x 472 x 13 x 1 x 1 = 987165816

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 987,472,611,163,163 is 987165816.

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 472 x 611 x 163 x 163 = 7562677316376

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

472 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 59, 118, 236, 472

611 : 1, 13, 47, 611

163 : 1, 163

163 : 1, 163

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 987,472,611,163,163, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

987:3x 7x 47

472:2x 2x 2x 59

611:13x 47

163:163

163:163

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

47x 163 = 7661

Therefore, the value for common factors is 7661.

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 = 7562677316376/(1x7661)

LCM = 7562677316376/7661

LCM = 987165816

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 987,472,611,163,163 is 987165816.
