Given numbers are 987,677,403,286

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

The LCM of 987,677,403,286 is 5924252334.

Find LCM of 987,677,403,286 with Prime Factorization

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

13 x 987 x 677 x 31 x 22 = 5924252334

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 987,677,403,286 is 5924252334.

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 677 x 403 x 286 = 77015280342

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

677 : 1, 677

403 : 1, 13, 31, 403

286 : 1, 2, 11, 13, 22, 26, 143, 286

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 987,677,403,286, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

987:3x 7x 47

677:677

403:13x 31

286:2x 11x 13

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

13 = 13

Therefore, the value for common factors is 13.

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 = 77015280342/(1x13)

LCM = 77015280342/13

LCM = 5924252334

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 987,677,403,286 is 5924252334.
