∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 7 x 1 x 1 x 9 = 6804

Least Common Multiple of 252,189,972 with GCF Formula

The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).

We need to calculate greatest common factor of 252,189,972 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(252,189,972) = 9

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 756

GCF(252,189,972) x common factors =9 x 756 = 6804

LCM(252,189,972) = ( 252 × 189 × 972 ) / 6804

LCM(252,189,972) = 46294416 / 6804

LCM(252,189,972) = 6804

∴ Least Common Multiple of 252,189,972 is 6804
