Given numbers are 140,988,992,544
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 140,988,992,544 is 145789280.
Find LCM of 140,988,992,544 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 140, 988, 992, 544 |
| 2 | 70, 494, 496, 272 |
| 2 | 35, 247, 248, 136 |
| 2 | 35, 247, 124, 68 |
| 2 | 35, 247, 62, 34 |
| 35, 247, 31, 17 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 35 x 247 x 31 x 17 = 145789280
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 140,988,992,544 is 145789280.
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.
140 x 988 x 992 x 544 = 74644111360
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.
140 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 10, 14, 20, 28, 35, 70, 140
988 : 1, 2, 4, 13, 19, 26, 38, 52, 76, 247, 494, 988
992 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 31, 32, 62, 124, 248, 496, 992
544 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 17, 32, 34, 68, 136, 272, 544
4 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 140,988,992,544, is 4.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
140:2x 2x 5x 7
988:2x 2x 13x 19
992:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 31
544:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 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 2x 2x 2x 2x 2 = 128
Therefore, the value for common factors is 128.
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 = 74644111360/(4x128)
LCM = 74644111360/512
LCM = 145789280
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 140,988,992,544 is 145789280.
