Given numbers are 168,687,252,804
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 168,687,252,804 is 7732872.
Find LCM of 168,687,252,804 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 168, 687, 252, 804 |
| 2 | 84, 687, 126, 402 |
| 3 | 42, 687, 63, 201 |
| 7 | 14, 229, 21, 67 |
| 2, 229, 3, 67 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 3 x 7 x 2 x 229 x 3 x 67 = 7732872
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 168,687,252,804 is 7732872.
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.
168 x 687 x 252 x 804 = 23384204928
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.
168 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 12, 14, 21, 24, 28, 42, 56, 84, 168
687 : 1, 3, 229, 687
252 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 9, 12, 14, 18, 21, 28, 36, 42, 63, 84, 126, 252
804 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 67, 134, 201, 268, 402, 804
3 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 168,687,252,804, is 3.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
168:2x 2x 2x 3x 7
687:3x 229
252:2x 2x 3x 3x 7
804:2x 2x 3x 67
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 3x 3x 7 = 1008
Therefore, the value for common factors is 1008.
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 = 23384204928/(3x1008)
LCM = 23384204928/3024
LCM = 7732872
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 168,687,252,804 is 7732872.
