Given numbers are 262,969,665,988
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 262,969,665,988 is 231028980.
Find LCM of 262,969,665,988 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 262, 969, 665, 988 |
| 19 | 131, 969, 665, 494 |
| 131, 51, 35, 26 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 19 x 131 x 51 x 35 x 26 = 231028980
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 262,969,665,988 is 231028980.
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.
262 x 969 x 665 x 988 = 166802923560
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.
262 : 1, 2, 131, 262
969 : 1, 3, 17, 19, 51, 57, 323, 969
665 : 1, 5, 7, 19, 35, 95, 133, 665
988 : 1, 2, 4, 13, 19, 26, 38, 52, 76, 247, 494, 988
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 262,969,665,988, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
262:2x 131
969:3x 17x 19
665:5x 7x 19
988:2x 2x 13x 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 19x 19 = 722
Therefore, the value for common factors is 722.
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 = 166802923560/(1x722)
LCM = 166802923560/722
LCM = 231028980
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 262,969,665,988 is 231028980.
