Given numbers are 987,835,212,148

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

The LCM of 987,835,212,148 is 6464593380.

Find LCM of 987,835,212,148 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 987 x 835 x 53 x 37 = 6464593380

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 987,835,212,148 is 6464593380.

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 835 x 212 x 148 = 25858373520

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

835 : 1, 5, 167, 835

212 : 1, 2, 4, 53, 106, 212

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

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 987,835,212,148, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

987:3x 7x 47

835:5x 167

212:2x 2x 53

148:2x 2x 37

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

2x 2 = 4

Therefore, the value for common factors is 4.

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 = 25858373520/(1x4)

LCM = 25858373520/4

LCM = 6464593380

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 987,835,212,148 is 6464593380.
