Given numbers are 988,698,671

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

The LCM of 988,698,671 is 231368852.

Find LCM of 988,698,671 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 494 x 349 x 671 = 231368852

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 988,698,671 is 231368852.

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 698 x 671 = 462737704

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

698 : 1, 2, 349, 698

671 : 1, 11, 61, 671

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 988,698,671, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

988:2x 2x 13x 19

698:2x 349

671:11x 61

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

2 = 2

Therefore, the value for common factors is 2.

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 = 462737704/(1x2)

LCM = 462737704/2

LCM = 231368852

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 988,698,671 is 231368852.

Here are some samples of LCM of two or more Numbers calculations.

• LCM of 730, 491, 269
