Given numbers are 998,977,439,878

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

The LCM of 998,977,439,878 is 428045194.

Find LCM of 998,977,439,878 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 439 x 499 x 977 x 1 x 1 = 428045194

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 998,977,439,878 is 428045194.

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.

998 x 977 x 439 x 878 = 375823680332

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.

998 : 1, 2, 499, 998

977 : 1, 977

439 : 1, 439

878 : 1, 2, 439, 878

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 998,977,439,878, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

998:2x 499

977:977

439:439

878:2x 439

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

2x 439 = 878

Therefore, the value for common factors is 878.

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 = 375823680332/(1x878)

LCM = 375823680332/878

LCM = 428045194

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 998,977,439,878 is 428045194.
