Given numbers are 998,986,476,888,716

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

The LCM of 998,986,476,888,716 is 273723132648.

Find LCM of 998,986,476,888,716 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 17 x 499 x 29 x 7 x 222 x 179 = 273723132648

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 998,986,476,888,716 is 273723132648.

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 986 x 476 x 888 x 716 = 297810768321024

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

986 : 1, 2, 17, 29, 34, 58, 493, 986

476 : 1, 2, 4, 7, 14, 17, 28, 34, 68, 119, 238, 476

888 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 37, 74, 111, 148, 222, 296, 444, 888

716 : 1, 2, 4, 179, 358, 716

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 998,986,476,888,716, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

998:2x 499

986:2x 17x 29

476:2x 2x 7x 17

888:2x 2x 2x 3x 37

716:2x 2x 179

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 2x 2x 17 = 544

Therefore, the value for common factors is 544.

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 = 297810768321024/(2x544)

LCM = 297810768321024/1088

LCM = 273723132648

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 998,986,476,888,716 is 273723132648.
