Given numbers are 260,838,495,285
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 260,838,495,285 is 204916140.
Find LCM of 260,838,495,285 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 260, 838, 495, 285 |
| 3 | 130, 419, 495, 285 |
| 5 | 130, 419, 165, 95 |
| 26, 419, 33, 19 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 3 x 5 x 26 x 419 x 33 x 19 = 204916140
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 260,838,495,285 is 204916140.
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.
260 x 838 x 495 x 285 = 30737421000
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.
260 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 13, 20, 26, 52, 65, 130, 260
838 : 1, 2, 419, 838
495 : 1, 3, 5, 9, 11, 15, 33, 45, 55, 99, 165, 495
285 : 1, 3, 5, 15, 19, 57, 95, 285
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 260,838,495,285, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
260:2x 2x 5x 13
838:2x 419
495:3x 3x 5x 11
285:3x 5x 19
From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.
2x 3x 5x 5 = 150
Therefore, the value for common factors is 150.
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 = 30737421000/(1x150)
LCM = 30737421000/150
LCM = 204916140
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 260,838,495,285 is 204916140.
