Given numbers are 988,156,508,364

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

The LCM of 988,156,508,364 is 2634996.

Find LCM of 988,156,508,364 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 13 x 19 x 3 x 127 x 7 = 2634996

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 988,156,508,364 is 2634996.

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.

988 x 156 x 508 x 364 = 28500116736

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.

988 : 1, 2, 4, 13, 19, 26, 38, 52, 76, 247, 494, 988

156 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 13, 26, 39, 52, 78, 156

508 : 1, 2, 4, 127, 254, 508

364 : 1, 2, 4, 7, 13, 14, 26, 28, 52, 91, 182, 364

4 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 988,156,508,364, is 4.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

988:2x 2x 13x 19

156:2x 2x 3x 13

508:2x 2x 127

364:2x 2x 7x 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 2x 2x 2x 13x 13 = 2704

Therefore, the value for common factors is 2704.

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 = 28500116736/(4x2704)

LCM = 28500116736/10816

LCM = 2634996

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 988,156,508,364 is 2634996.
