Find LCM of 166,856,968,642,132 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 166, 856, 968, 642, 132 |
| 2 | 83, 428, 484, 321, 66 |
| 2 | 83, 214, 242, 321, 33 |
| 3 | 83, 107, 121, 321, 33 |
| 11 | 83, 107, 121, 107, 11 |
| 107 | 83, 107, 1, 107, 11 |
| 83, 1, 1, 1, 11 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 11 x 107 x 83 x 1 x 1 x 1 x 11 = 25790424
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 166,856,968,642,132 is 25790424.
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.
166 x 856 x 968 x 642 x 132 = 11656446354432
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.
166 : 1, 2, 83, 166
856 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 107, 214, 428, 856
968 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 11, 22, 44, 88, 121, 242, 484, 968
642 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 107, 214, 321, 642
132 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 11, 12, 22, 33, 44, 66, 132
2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 166,856,968,642,132, is 2.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
166:2x 83
856:2x 2x 2x 107
968:2x 2x 2x 11x 11
642:2x 3x 107
132:2x 2x 3x 11
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 3x 11x 107 = 225984
Therefore, the value for common factors is 225984.
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 = 11656446354432/(2x225984)
LCM = 11656446354432/451968
LCM = 25790424
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 166,856,968,642,132 is 25790424.
