Find LCM of 132,162,959,918 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 132, 162, 959, 918 |
| 3 | 66, 81, 959, 459 |
| 3 | 22, 27, 959, 153 |
| 3 | 22, 9, 959, 51 |
| 22, 3, 959, 17 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 22 x 3 x 959 x 17 = 58103892
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 132,162,959,918 is 58103892.
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.
132 x 162 x 959 x 918 = 18825661008
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.
132 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 11, 12, 22, 33, 44, 66, 132
162 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 27, 54, 81, 162
959 : 1, 7, 137, 959
918 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 17, 18, 27, 34, 51, 54, 102, 153, 306, 459, 918
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 132,162,959,918, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
132:2x 2x 3x 11
162:2x 3x 3x 3x 3
959:7x 137
918:2x 3x 3x 3x 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 2x 3x 3x 3x 3 = 324
Therefore, the value for common factors is 324.
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 = 18825661008/(1x324)
LCM = 18825661008/324
LCM = 58103892
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 132,162,959,918 is 58103892.
