Given numbers are 988,244,416,508

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

The LCM of 988,244,416,508 is 61232288.

Find LCM of 988,244,416,508 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 13 x 19 x 61 x 8 x 127 = 61232288

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 988,244,416,508 is 61232288.

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 244 x 416 x 508 = 50945263616

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

244 : 1, 2, 4, 61, 122, 244

416 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 13, 16, 26, 32, 52, 104, 208, 416

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

4 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 988,244,416,508, is 4.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

988:2x 2x 13x 19

244:2x 2x 61

416:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 13

508:2x 2x 127

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 13 = 208

Therefore, the value for common factors is 208.

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 = 50945263616/(4x208)

LCM = 50945263616/832

LCM = 61232288

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 988,244,416,508 is 61232288.
