Find LCM of 462,637,281,988,552 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 462, 637, 281, 988, 552 |
| 2 | 231, 637, 281, 494, 276 |
| 3 | 231, 637, 281, 247, 138 |
| 7 | 77, 637, 281, 247, 46 |
| 13 | 11, 91, 281, 247, 46 |
| 11, 7, 281, 19, 46 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 3 x 7 x 13 x 11 x 7 x 281 x 19 x 46 = 20650525896
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 462,637,281,988,552 is 20650525896.
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 637 x 281 x 988 x 552 = 45100748556864
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
637 : 1, 7, 13, 49, 91, 637
281 : 1, 281
988 : 1, 2, 4, 13, 19, 26, 38, 52, 76, 247, 494, 988
552 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 23, 24, 46, 69, 92, 138, 184, 276, 552
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 462,637,281,988,552, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
462:2x 3x 7x 11
637:7x 7x 13
281:281
988:2x 2x 13x 19
552:2x 2x 2x 3x 23
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 3x 7x 13 = 2184
Therefore, the value for common factors is 2184.
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 = 45100748556864/(1x2184)
LCM = 45100748556864/2184
LCM = 20650525896
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 462,637,281,988,552 is 20650525896.
