The LCM of 133,551,986,978 is 64126482.
Find LCM of 133,551,986,978 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 133, 551, 986, 978 |
| 19 | 133, 551, 493, 489 |
| 29 | 7, 29, 493, 489 |
| 7, 1, 17, 489 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 19 x 29 x 7 x 1 x 17 x 489 = 64126482
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 133,551,986,978 is 64126482.
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.
133 x 551 x 986 x 978 = 70667383164
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.
133 : 1, 7, 19, 133
551 : 1, 19, 29, 551
986 : 1, 2, 17, 29, 34, 58, 493, 986
978 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 163, 326, 489, 978
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 133,551,986,978, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
133:7x 19
551:19x 29
986:2x 17x 29
978:2x 3x 163
From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.
2x 19x 29 = 1102
Therefore, the value for common factors is 1102.
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 = 70667383164/(1x1102)
LCM = 70667383164/1102
LCM = 64126482
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 133,551,986,978 is 64126482.
