Find LCM of 242,540,899,486,435 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 242, 540, 899, 486, 435 |
| 3 | 121, 270, 899, 243, 435 |
| 3 | 121, 90, 899, 81, 145 |
| 3 | 121, 30, 899, 27, 145 |
| 5 | 121, 10, 899, 9, 145 |
| 29 | 121, 2, 899, 9, 29 |
| 121, 2, 31, 9, 1 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 5 x 29 x 121 x 2 x 31 x 9 x 1 = 528665940
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 242,540,899,486,435 is 528665940.
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.
242 x 540 x 899 x 486 x 435 = 24836725861200
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.
242 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 121, 242
540 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 10, 12, 15, 18, 20, 27, 30, 36, 45, 54, 60, 90, 108, 135, 180, 270, 540
899 : 1, 29, 31, 899
486 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 27, 54, 81, 162, 243, 486
435 : 1, 3, 5, 15, 29, 87, 145, 435
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 242,540,899,486,435, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
242:2x 11x 11
540:2x 2x 3x 3x 3x 5
899:29x 31
486:2x 3x 3x 3x 3x 3
435:3x 5x 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 3x 3x 3x 3x 5x 29 = 46980
Therefore, the value for common factors is 46980.
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 = 24836725861200/(1x46980)
LCM = 24836725861200/46980
LCM = 528665940
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 242,540,899,486,435 is 528665940.
