Find LCM of 320,470,432,522 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 320, 470, 432, 522 |
| 2 | 160, 235, 216, 261 |
| 2 | 80, 235, 108, 261 |
| 2 | 40, 235, 54, 261 |
| 3 | 20, 235, 27, 261 |
| 3 | 20, 235, 9, 87 |
| 5 | 20, 235, 3, 29 |
| 4, 47, 3, 29 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 5 x 4 x 47 x 3 x 29 = 11776320
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 320,470,432,522 is 11776320.
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.
320 x 470 x 432 x 522 = 33915801600
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.
320 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, 32, 40, 64, 80, 160, 320
470 : 1, 2, 5, 10, 47, 94, 235, 470
432 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 16, 18, 24, 27, 36, 48, 54, 72, 108, 144, 216, 432
522 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 29, 58, 87, 174, 261, 522
2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 320,470,432,522, is 2.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
320:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 5
470:2x 5x 47
432:2x 2x 2x 2x 3x 3x 3
522:2x 3x 3x 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 2x 2x 2x 2x 3x 3x 5 = 1440
Therefore, the value for common factors is 1440.
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 = 33915801600/(2x1440)
LCM = 33915801600/2880
LCM = 11776320
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 320,470,432,522 is 11776320.
