Given numbers are 279,796,398,984
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 279,796,398,984 is 18210888.
Find LCM of 279,796,398,984 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 279, 796, 398, 984 |
| 2 | 279, 398, 199, 492 |
| 3 | 279, 199, 199, 246 |
| 199 | 93, 199, 199, 82 |
| 93, 1, 1, 82 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 3 x 199 x 93 x 1 x 1 x 82 = 18210888
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 279,796,398,984 is 18210888.
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.
279 x 796 x 398 x 984 = 86975201088
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.
279 : 1, 3, 9, 31, 93, 279
796 : 1, 2, 4, 199, 398, 796
398 : 1, 2, 199, 398
984 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 41, 82, 123, 164, 246, 328, 492, 984
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 279,796,398,984, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
279:3x 3x 31
796:2x 2x 199
398:2x 199
984:2x 2x 2x 3x 41
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 3x 199 = 4776
Therefore, the value for common factors is 4776.
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 = 86975201088/(1x4776)
LCM = 86975201088/4776
LCM = 18210888
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 279,796,398,984 is 18210888.
