Calculate the LCM of 159,686,557,860,974

Given numbers are 159,686,557,860,974

The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.

The LCM of 159,686,557,860,974 is 12722540791380.

Find LCM of 159,686,557,860,974 with Prime Factorization


2 159, 686, 557, 860, 974
159, 343, 557, 430, 487

Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.

2 x 159 x 343 x 557 x 430 x 487 = 12722540791380

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 159,686,557,860,974 is 12722540791380.

LCM Formula to Find Lowest Common Multiple of 159,686,557,860,974

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.

159 x 686 x 557 x 860 x 974 = 50890163165520

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.

159 : 1, 3, 53, 159

686 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 49, 98, 343, 686

557 : 1, 557

860 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 43, 86, 172, 215, 430, 860

974 : 1, 2, 487, 974

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 159,686,557,860,974, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

159:3x 53

686:2x 7x 7x 7

557:557

860:2x 2x 5x 43

974:2x 487

From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.

2x 2 = 4

Therefore, the value for common factors is 4.

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 = 50890163165520/(1x4)

LCM = 50890163165520/4

LCM = 12722540791380

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 159,686,557,860,974 is 12722540791380.
