Given numbers are 240,143,282,338,689
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 240,143,282,338,689 is 1111384560.
Find LCM of 240,143,282,338,689 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 240, 143, 282, 338, 689 |
| 3 | 120, 143, 141, 169, 689 |
| 13 | 40, 143, 47, 169, 689 |
| 40, 11, 47, 13, 53 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 3 x 13 x 40 x 11 x 47 x 13 x 53 = 1111384560
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 240,143,282,338,689 is 1111384560.
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.
240 x 143 x 282 x 338 x 689 = 2253887887680
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.
240 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 16, 20, 24, 30, 40, 48, 60, 80, 120, 240
143 : 1, 11, 13, 143
282 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 47, 94, 141, 282
338 : 1, 2, 13, 26, 169, 338
689 : 1, 13, 53, 689
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 240,143,282,338,689, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
240:2x 2x 2x 2x 3x 5
143:11x 13
282:2x 3x 47
338:2x 13x 13
689:13x 53
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 13x 13 = 2028
Therefore, the value for common factors is 2028.
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 = 2253887887680/(1x2028)
LCM = 2253887887680/2028
LCM = 1111384560
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 240,143,282,338,689 is 1111384560.
