Given numbers are 18,42,98,63,435
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 18,42,98,63,435 is 127890.
Find LCM of 18,42,98,63,435 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 18, 42, 98, 63, 435 |
| 3 | 9, 21, 49, 63, 435 |
| 3 | 3, 7, 49, 21, 145 |
| 7 | 1, 7, 49, 7, 145 |
| 1, 1, 1, 7, 145 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 3 x 3 x 7 x 1 x 1 x 1 x 7 x 145 = 127890
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 18,42,98,63,435 is 127890.
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.
18 x 42 x 98 x 63 x 435 = 2030381640
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.
18 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18
42 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21, 42
98 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 49, 98
63 : 1, 3, 7, 9, 21, 63
435 : 1, 3, 5, 15, 29, 87, 145, 435
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 18,42,98,63,435, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
18:2x 3x 3
42:2x 3x 7
98:2x 7x 7
63:3x 3x 7
435:3x 5x 29
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 3x 3x 3x 3x 7x 7 = 15876
Therefore, the value for common factors is 15876.
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 = 2030381640/(1x15876)
LCM = 2030381640/15876
LCM = 127890
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 18,42,98,63,435 is 127890.
