The LCM of 232,984,246,971 is 27708456.
Find LCM of 232,984,246,971 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 232, 984, 246, 971 |
| 2 | 116, 492, 123, 971 |
| 2 | 58, 246, 123, 971 |
| 3 | 29, 123, 123, 971 |
| 41 | 29, 41, 41, 971 |
| 29, 1, 1, 971 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 41 x 29 x 1 x 1 x 971 = 27708456
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 232,984,246,971 is 27708456.
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 984 x 246 x 971 = 54530241408
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
984 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 41, 82, 123, 164, 246, 328, 492, 984
246 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 41, 82, 123, 246
971 : 1, 971
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 232,984,246,971, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
232:2x 2x 2x 29
984:2x 2x 2x 3x 41
246:2x 3x 41
971:971
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 41 = 1968
Therefore, the value for common factors is 1968.
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 = 54530241408/(1x1968)
LCM = 54530241408/1968
LCM = 27708456
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 232,984,246,971 is 27708456.
