Given numbers are 328,287,985,697
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 328,287,985,697 is 38446520.
Find LCM of 328,287,985,697 with Prime Factorization
| 41 | 328, 287, 985, 697 |
| 8, 7, 985, 17 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
41 x 8 x 7 x 985 x 17 = 38446520
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 328,287,985,697 is 38446520.
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.
328 x 287 x 985 x 697 = 64628600120
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.
328 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 41, 82, 164, 328
287 : 1, 7, 41, 287
985 : 1, 5, 197, 985
697 : 1, 17, 41, 697
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 328,287,985,697, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
328:2x 2x 2x 41
287:7x 41
985:5x 197
697:17x 41
From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.
41x 41 = 1681
Therefore, the value for common factors is 1681.
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 = 64628600120/(1x1681)
LCM = 64628600120/1681
LCM = 38446520
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 328,287,985,697 is 38446520.
