Given numbers are 997,104,299,442

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

The LCM of 997,104,299,442 is 40542008.

Find LCM of 997,104,299,442 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 13 x 997 x 4 x 23 x 17 = 40542008

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 997,104,299,442 is 40542008.

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.

997 x 104 x 299 x 442 = 13703198704

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.

997 : 1, 997

104 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 13, 26, 52, 104

299 : 1, 13, 23, 299

442 : 1, 2, 13, 17, 26, 34, 221, 442

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 997,104,299,442, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

997:997

104:2x 2x 2x 13

299:13x 23

442:2x 13x 17

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

2x 13x 13 = 338

Therefore, the value for common factors is 338.

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 = 13703198704/(1x338)

LCM = 13703198704/338

LCM = 40542008

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 997,104,299,442 is 40542008.
