Given numbers are 996,674,972,487

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

The LCM of 996,674,972,487 is 13240464444.

Find LCM of 996,674,972,487 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 3 x 83 x 337 x 81 x 487 = 13240464444

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 996,674,972,487 is 13240464444.

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 674 x 972 x 487 = 317771146656

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

674 : 1, 2, 337, 674

972 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 27, 36, 54, 81, 108, 162, 243, 324, 486, 972

487 : 1, 487

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 996,674,972,487, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

996:2x 2x 3x 83

674:2x 337

972:2x 2x 3x 3x 3x 3x 3

487:487

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 2x 3 = 24

Therefore, the value for common factors is 24.

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 = 317771146656/(1x24)

LCM = 317771146656/24

LCM = 13240464444

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 996,674,972,487 is 13240464444.
