Find LCM of 261,811,510,252,255 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 261, 811, 510, 252, 255 |
| 3 | 261, 811, 255, 126, 255 |
| 3 | 87, 811, 85, 42, 85 |
| 5 | 29, 811, 85, 14, 85 |
| 17 | 29, 811, 17, 14, 17 |
| 29, 811, 1, 14, 1 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 3 x 3 x 5 x 17 x 29 x 811 x 1 x 14 x 1 = 503776980
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 261,811,510,252,255 is 503776980.
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.
261 x 811 x 510 x 252 x 255 = 6937009014600
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.
261 : 1, 3, 9, 29, 87, 261
811 : 1, 811
510 : 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, 17, 30, 34, 51, 85, 102, 170, 255, 510
252 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 9, 12, 14, 18, 21, 28, 36, 42, 63, 84, 126, 252
255 : 1, 3, 5, 15, 17, 51, 85, 255
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 261,811,510,252,255, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
261:3x 3x 29
811:811
510:2x 3x 5x 17
252:2x 2x 3x 3x 7
255:3x 5x 17
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 3x 3x 3x 5x 17 = 13770
Therefore, the value for common factors is 13770.
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 = 6937009014600/(1x13770)
LCM = 6937009014600/13770
LCM = 503776980
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 261,811,510,252,255 is 503776980.
