The LCM of 308,999,942,177,168 is 5700301992.
Find LCM of 308,999,942,177,168 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 308, 999, 942, 177, 168 |
| 2 | 154, 999, 471, 177, 84 |
| 3 | 77, 999, 471, 177, 42 |
| 7 | 77, 333, 157, 59, 14 |
| 11, 333, 157, 59, 2 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 3 x 7 x 11 x 333 x 157 x 59 x 2 = 5700301992
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 308,999,942,177,168 is 5700301992.
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.
308 x 999 x 942 x 177 x 168 = 8618856611904
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.
308 : 1, 2, 4, 7, 11, 14, 22, 28, 44, 77, 154, 308
999 : 1, 3, 9, 27, 37, 111, 333, 999
942 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 157, 314, 471, 942
177 : 1, 3, 59, 177
168 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 12, 14, 21, 24, 28, 42, 56, 84, 168
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 308,999,942,177,168, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
308:2x 2x 7x 11
999:3x 3x 3x 37
942:2x 3x 157
177:3x 59
168:2x 2x 2x 3x 7
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 3x 3x 7 = 1512
Therefore, the value for common factors is 1512.
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 = 8618856611904/(1x1512)
LCM = 8618856611904/1512
LCM = 5700301992
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 308,999,942,177,168 is 5700301992.
