Find LCM of 462,836,211,285 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 462, 836, 211, 285 |
| 3 | 231, 418, 211, 285 |
| 11 | 77, 418, 211, 95 |
| 19 | 7, 38, 211, 95 |
| 7, 2, 211, 5 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 3 x 11 x 19 x 7 x 2 x 211 x 5 = 18521580
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 462,836,211,285 is 18521580.
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 836 x 211 x 285 = 23226061320
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
836 : 1, 2, 4, 11, 19, 22, 38, 44, 76, 209, 418, 836
211 : 1, 211
285 : 1, 3, 5, 15, 19, 57, 95, 285
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 462,836,211,285, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
462:2x 3x 7x 11
836:2x 2x 11x 19
211:211
285:3x 5x 19
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 11x 19 = 1254
Therefore, the value for common factors is 1254.
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 = 23226061320/(1x1254)
LCM = 23226061320/1254
LCM = 18521580
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 462,836,211,285 is 18521580.
