Given numbers are 238,596,596,914
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 238,596,596,914 is 32412268.
Find LCM of 238,596,596,914 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 238, 596, 596, 914 |
| 2 | 119, 298, 298, 457 |
| 149 | 119, 149, 149, 457 |
| 119, 1, 1, 457 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 149 x 119 x 1 x 1 x 457 = 32412268
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 238,596,596,914 is 32412268.
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.
238 x 596 x 596 x 914 = 77270846912
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.
238 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 17, 34, 119, 238
596 : 1, 2, 4, 149, 298, 596
596 : 1, 2, 4, 149, 298, 596
914 : 1, 2, 457, 914
2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 238,596,596,914, is 2.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
238:2x 7x 17
596:2x 2x 149
596:2x 2x 149
914:2x 457
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 149 = 1192
Therefore, the value for common factors is 1192.
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 = 77270846912/(2x1192)
LCM = 77270846912/2384
LCM = 32412268
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 238,596,596,914 is 32412268.
