Find LCM of 337,180,968,696,261 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 337, 180, 968, 696, 261 |
| 2 | 337, 90, 484, 348, 261 |
| 2 | 337, 45, 242, 174, 261 |
| 3 | 337, 45, 121, 87, 261 |
| 3 | 337, 15, 121, 29, 87 |
| 29 | 337, 5, 121, 29, 29 |
| 337, 5, 121, 1, 1 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 29 x 337 x 5 x 121 x 1 x 1 = 425711880
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 337,180,968,696,261 is 425711880.
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.
337 x 180 x 968 x 696 x 261 = 10666636865280
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.
337 : 1, 337
180 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 10, 12, 15, 18, 20, 30, 36, 45, 60, 90, 180
968 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 11, 22, 44, 88, 121, 242, 484, 968
696 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 29, 58, 87, 116, 174, 232, 348, 696
261 : 1, 3, 9, 29, 87, 261
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 337,180,968,696,261, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
337:337
180:2x 2x 3x 3x 5
968:2x 2x 2x 11x 11
696:2x 2x 2x 3x 29
261:3x 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 3x 29 = 25056
Therefore, the value for common factors is 25056.
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 = 10666636865280/(1x25056)
LCM = 10666636865280/25056
LCM = 425711880
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 337,180,968,696,261 is 425711880.
