Find LCM of 462,187,458,396,204 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 462, 187, 458, 396, 204 |
| 2 | 231, 187, 229, 198, 102 |
| 3 | 231, 187, 229, 99, 51 |
| 11 | 77, 187, 229, 33, 17 |
| 17 | 7, 17, 229, 3, 17 |
| 7, 1, 229, 3, 1 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 3 x 11 x 17 x 7 x 1 x 229 x 3 x 1 = 10791396
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 462,187,458,396,204 is 10791396.
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.
462 x 187 x 458 x 396 x 204 = 3196497826368
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.
462 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 11, 14, 21, 22, 33, 42, 66, 77, 154, 231, 462
187 : 1, 11, 17, 187
458 : 1, 2, 229, 458
396 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 11, 12, 18, 22, 33, 36, 44, 66, 99, 132, 198, 396
204 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 17, 34, 51, 68, 102, 204
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 462,187,458,396,204, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
462:2x 3x 7x 11
187:11x 17
458:2x 229
396:2x 2x 3x 3x 11
204:2x 2x 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 2x 2x 2x 3x 3x 11x 11x 17 = 296208
Therefore, the value for common factors is 296208.
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 = 3196497826368/(1x296208)
LCM = 3196497826368/296208
LCM = 10791396
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 462,187,458,396,204 is 10791396.
