Given numbers are 988,965,409,274

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

The LCM of 988,965,409,274 is 53422982860.

Find LCM of 988,965,409,274 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 494 x 965 x 409 x 137 = 53422982860

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 988,965,409,274 is 53422982860.

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 965 x 409 x 274 = 106845965720

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

965 : 1, 5, 193, 965

409 : 1, 409

274 : 1, 2, 137, 274

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 988,965,409,274, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

988:2x 2x 13x 19

965:5x 193

409:409

274:2x 137

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 = 106845965720/(1x2)

LCM = 106845965720/2

LCM = 53422982860

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 988,965,409,274 is 53422982860.
