Given numbers are 989,266,996

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

The LCM of 989,266,996 is 131010852.

Find LCM of 989,266,996 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 989 x 133 x 498 = 131010852

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 989,266,996 is 131010852.

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.

989 x 266 x 996 = 262021704

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.

989 : 1, 23, 43, 989

266 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 19, 38, 133, 266

996 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 83, 166, 249, 332, 498, 996

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 989,266,996, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

989:23x 43

266:2x 7x 19

996:2x 2x 3x 83

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 = 262021704/(1x2)

LCM = 262021704/2

LCM = 131010852

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 989,266,996 is 131010852.

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

• LCM of 183, 218, 127
