Find LCM of 304,969,783,986 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 304, 969, 783, 986 |
| 3 | 152, 969, 783, 493 |
| 17 | 152, 323, 261, 493 |
| 19 | 152, 19, 261, 29 |
| 29 | 8, 1, 261, 29 |
| 8, 1, 9, 1 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 3 x 17 x 19 x 29 x 8 x 1 x 9 x 1 = 4046544
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 304,969,783,986 is 4046544.
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.
304 x 969 x 783 x 986 = 227423865888
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.
304 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 19, 38, 76, 152, 304
969 : 1, 3, 17, 19, 51, 57, 323, 969
783 : 1, 3, 9, 27, 29, 87, 261, 783
986 : 1, 2, 17, 29, 34, 58, 493, 986
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 304,969,783,986, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
304:2x 2x 2x 2x 19
969:3x 17x 19
783:3x 3x 3x 29
986:2x 17x 29
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 17x 19x 29 = 56202
Therefore, the value for common factors is 56202.
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 = 227423865888/(1x56202)
LCM = 227423865888/56202
LCM = 4046544
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 304,969,783,986 is 4046544.
