Given numbers are 996,998,982,437

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

The LCM of 996,998,982,437 is 106640657268.

Find LCM of 996,998,982,437 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 498 x 499 x 491 x 437 = 106640657268

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 996,998,982,437 is 106640657268.

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 998 x 982 x 437 = 426562629072

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

998 : 1, 2, 499, 998

982 : 1, 2, 491, 982

437 : 1, 19, 23, 437

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 996,998,982,437, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

996:2x 2x 3x 83

998:2x 499

982:2x 491

437:19x 23

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

2x 2 = 4

Therefore, the value for common factors is 4.

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 = 426562629072/(1x4)

LCM = 426562629072/4

LCM = 106640657268

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 996,998,982,437 is 106640657268.
