Given numbers are 988,869,803,791,257

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

The LCM of 988,869,803,791,257 is 12741166409972.

Find LCM of 988,869,803,791,257 with Prime Factorization

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

11 x 988 x 79 x 73 x 791 x 257 = 12741166409972

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 988,869,803,791,257 is 12741166409972.

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 869 x 803 x 791 x 257 = 140152830509692

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

869 : 1, 11, 79, 869

803 : 1, 11, 73, 803

791 : 1, 7, 113, 791

257 : 1, 257

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 988,869,803,791,257, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

988:2x 2x 13x 19

869:11x 79

803:11x 73

791:7x 113

257:257

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

11 = 11

Therefore, the value for common factors is 11.

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 = 140152830509692/(1x11)

LCM = 140152830509692/11

LCM = 12741166409972

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 988,869,803,791,257 is 12741166409972.
