Given numbers are 236,766,986,957
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 236,766,986,957 is 1470522372.
Find LCM of 236,766,986,957 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 236, 766, 986, 957 |
| 29 | 118, 383, 493, 957 |
| 118, 383, 17, 33 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 29 x 118 x 383 x 17 x 33 = 1470522372
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 236,766,986,957 is 1470522372.
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.
236 x 766 x 986 x 957 = 170580595152
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.
236 : 1, 2, 4, 59, 118, 236
766 : 1, 2, 383, 766
986 : 1, 2, 17, 29, 34, 58, 493, 986
957 : 1, 3, 11, 29, 33, 87, 319, 957
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 236,766,986,957, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
236:2x 2x 59
766:2x 383
986:2x 17x 29
957:3x 11x 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 29 = 116
Therefore, the value for common factors is 116.
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 = 170580595152/(1x116)
LCM = 170580595152/116
LCM = 1470522372
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 236,766,986,957 is 1470522372.
