Given numbers are 232,478,348,321
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 232,478,348,321 is 17798808.
Find LCM of 232,478,348,321 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 232, 478, 348, 321 |
| 2 | 116, 239, 174, 321 |
| 3 | 58, 239, 87, 321 |
| 29 | 58, 239, 29, 107 |
| 2, 239, 1, 107 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 3 x 29 x 2 x 239 x 1 x 107 = 17798808
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 232,478,348,321 is 17798808.
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.
232 x 478 x 348 x 321 = 12387970368
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.
232 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 29, 58, 116, 232
478 : 1, 2, 239, 478
348 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 29, 58, 87, 116, 174, 348
321 : 1, 3, 107, 321
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 232,478,348,321, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
232:2x 2x 2x 29
478:2x 239
348:2x 2x 3x 29
321:3x 107
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 3x 29 = 696
Therefore, the value for common factors is 696.
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 = 12387970368/(1x696)
LCM = 12387970368/696
LCM = 17798808
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 232,478,348,321 is 17798808.
