Given numbers are 285,128,667,988,974
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 285,128,667,988,974 is 154046904960.
Find LCM of 285,128,667,988,974 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 285, 128, 667, 988, 974 |
| 2 | 285, 64, 667, 494, 487 |
| 19 | 285, 32, 667, 247, 487 |
| 15, 32, 667, 13, 487 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 19 x 15 x 32 x 667 x 13 x 487 = 154046904960
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 285,128,667,988,974 is 154046904960.
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.
285 x 128 x 667 x 988 x 974 = 23415129553920
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.
285 : 1, 3, 5, 15, 19, 57, 95, 285
128 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128
667 : 1, 23, 29, 667
988 : 1, 2, 4, 13, 19, 26, 38, 52, 76, 247, 494, 988
974 : 1, 2, 487, 974
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 285,128,667,988,974, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
285:3x 5x 19
128:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 2
667:23x 29
988:2x 2x 13x 19
974:2x 487
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 19 = 152
Therefore, the value for common factors is 152.
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 = 23415129553920/(1x152)
LCM = 23415129553920/152
LCM = 154046904960
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 285,128,667,988,974 is 154046904960.
