Given numbers are 323,142,978,459
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 323,142,978,459 is 201856266.
Find LCM of 323,142,978,459 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 323, 142, 978, 459 |
| 3 | 323, 71, 489, 459 |
| 17 | 323, 71, 163, 153 |
| 19, 71, 163, 9 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 3 x 17 x 19 x 71 x 163 x 9 = 201856266
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 323,142,978,459 is 201856266.
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.
323 x 142 x 978 x 459 = 20589339132
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.
323 : 1, 17, 19, 323
142 : 1, 2, 71, 142
978 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 163, 326, 489, 978
459 : 1, 3, 9, 17, 27, 51, 153, 459
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 323,142,978,459, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
323:17x 19
142:2x 71
978:2x 3x 163
459:3x 3x 3x 17
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 17 = 102
Therefore, the value for common factors is 102.
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 = 20589339132/(1x102)
LCM = 20589339132/102
LCM = 201856266
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 323,142,978,459 is 201856266.
