Find LCM of 143,956,198,540,197 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 143, 956, 198, 540, 197 |
| 2 | 143, 478, 99, 270, 197 |
| 3 | 143, 239, 99, 135, 197 |
| 3 | 143, 239, 33, 45, 197 |
| 11 | 143, 239, 11, 15, 197 |
| 13, 239, 1, 15, 197 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 11 x 13 x 239 x 1 x 15 x 197 = 3635749260
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 143,956,198,540,197 is 3635749260.
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.
143 x 956 x 198 x 540 x 197 = 2879513413920
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.
143 : 1, 11, 13, 143
956 : 1, 2, 4, 239, 478, 956
198 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 11, 18, 22, 33, 66, 99, 198
540 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 10, 12, 15, 18, 20, 27, 30, 36, 45, 54, 60, 90, 108, 135, 180, 270, 540
197 : 1, 197
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 143,956,198,540,197, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
143:11x 13
956:2x 2x 239
198:2x 3x 3x 11
540:2x 2x 3x 3x 3x 5
197:197
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 3x 3x 11 = 792
Therefore, the value for common factors is 792.
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 = 2879513413920/(1x792)
LCM = 2879513413920/792
LCM = 3635749260
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 143,956,198,540,197 is 3635749260.
