Find LCM of 159,851,836,848,943 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 159, 851, 836, 848, 943 |
| 2 | 159, 851, 418, 424, 943 |
| 23 | 159, 851, 209, 212, 943 |
| 53 | 159, 37, 209, 212, 41 |
| 3, 37, 209, 4, 41 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 23 x 53 x 3 x 37 x 209 x 4 x 41 = 18551405136
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 159,851,836,848,943 is 18551405136.
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 851 x 836 x 848 x 943 = 90456651443136
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
851 : 1, 23, 37, 851
836 : 1, 2, 4, 11, 19, 22, 38, 44, 76, 209, 418, 836
848 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 53, 106, 212, 424, 848
943 : 1, 23, 41, 943
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 159,851,836,848,943, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
159:3x 53
851:23x 37
836:2x 2x 11x 19
848:2x 2x 2x 2x 53
943:23x 41
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 23x 53 = 4876
Therefore, the value for common factors is 4876.
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 = 90456651443136/(1x4876)
LCM = 90456651443136/4876
LCM = 18551405136
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 159,851,836,848,943 is 18551405136.
