Given numbers are 178,839,979,143
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 178,839,979,143 is 21355906.
Find LCM of 178,839,979,143 with Prime Factorization
| 11 | 178, 839, 979, 143 |
| 89 | 178, 839, 89, 13 |
| 2, 839, 1, 13 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
11 x 89 x 2 x 839 x 1 x 13 = 21355906
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 178,839,979,143 is 21355906.
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.
178 x 839 x 979 x 143 = 20907431974
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.
178 : 1, 2, 89, 178
839 : 1, 839
979 : 1, 11, 89, 979
143 : 1, 11, 13, 143
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 178,839,979,143, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
178:2x 89
839:839
979:11x 89
143:11x 13
From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.
11x 89 = 979
Therefore, the value for common factors is 979.
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 = 20907431974/(1x979)
LCM = 20907431974/979
LCM = 21355906
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 178,839,979,143 is 21355906.
