Find LCM of 271,726,224,240,966 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 271, 726, 224, 240, 966 |
| 2 | 271, 363, 112, 120, 483 |
| 2 | 271, 363, 56, 60, 483 |
| 2 | 271, 363, 28, 30, 483 |
| 3 | 271, 363, 14, 15, 483 |
| 7 | 271, 121, 14, 5, 161 |
| 271, 121, 2, 5, 23 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 7 x 271 x 121 x 2 x 5 x 23 = 2534088480
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 271,726,224,240,966 is 2534088480.
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.
271 x 726 x 224 x 240 x 966 = 10217444751360
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.
271 : 1, 271
726 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 11, 22, 33, 66, 121, 242, 363, 726
224 : 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 16, 28, 32, 56, 112, 224
240 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 16, 20, 24, 30, 40, 48, 60, 80, 120, 240
966 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21, 23, 42, 46, 69, 138, 161, 322, 483, 966
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 271,726,224,240,966, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
271:271
726:2x 3x 11x 11
224:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 7
240:2x 2x 2x 2x 3x 5
966:2x 3x 7x 23
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 2x 2x 2x 2x 3x 3x 7 = 4032
Therefore, the value for common factors is 4032.
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 = 10217444751360/(1x4032)
LCM = 10217444751360/4032
LCM = 2534088480
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 271,726,224,240,966 is 2534088480.
