Given numbers are 996,167,962,642

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

The LCM of 996,167,962,642 is 8560609044.

Find LCM of 996,167,962,642 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3 x 166 x 167 x 481 x 107 = 8560609044

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 996,167,962,642 is 8560609044.

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.

996 x 167 x 962 x 642 = 102727308528

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.

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

167 : 1, 167

962 : 1, 2, 13, 26, 37, 74, 481, 962

642 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 107, 214, 321, 642

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 996,167,962,642, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

996:2x 2x 3x 83

167:167

962:2x 13x 37

642:2x 3x 107

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 3 = 12

Therefore, the value for common factors is 12.

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 = 102727308528/(1x12)

LCM = 102727308528/12

LCM = 8560609044

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 996,167,962,642 is 8560609044.
