Given numbers are 131,748,942,555
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 131,748,942,555 is 8538184380.
Find LCM of 131,748,942,555 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 131, 748, 942, 555 |
| 3 | 131, 374, 471, 555 |
| 131, 374, 157, 185 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 3 x 131 x 374 x 157 x 185 = 8538184380
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 131,748,942,555 is 8538184380.
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.
131 x 748 x 942 x 555 = 51229106280
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.
131 : 1, 131
748 : 1, 2, 4, 11, 17, 22, 34, 44, 68, 187, 374, 748
942 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 157, 314, 471, 942
555 : 1, 3, 5, 15, 37, 111, 185, 555
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 131,748,942,555, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
131:131
748:2x 2x 11x 17
942:2x 3x 157
555:3x 5x 37
From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.
2x 3 = 6
Therefore, the value for common factors is 6.
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 = 51229106280/(1x6)
LCM = 51229106280/6
LCM = 8538184380
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 131,748,942,555 is 8538184380.
