The LCM of 480,989,656,648 is 525515040.
Find LCM of 480,989,656,648 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 480, 989, 656, 648 |
| 2 | 240, 989, 328, 324 |
| 2 | 120, 989, 164, 162 |
| 2 | 60, 989, 82, 81 |
| 3 | 30, 989, 41, 81 |
| 10, 989, 41, 27 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 10 x 989 x 41 x 27 = 525515040
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 480,989,656,648 is 525515040.
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.
480 x 989 x 656 x 648 = 201797775360
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.
480 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 16, 20, 24, 30, 32, 40, 48, 60, 80, 96, 120, 160, 240, 480
989 : 1, 23, 43, 989
656 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 41, 82, 164, 328, 656
648 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 24, 27, 36, 54, 72, 81, 108, 162, 216, 324, 648
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 480,989,656,648, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
480:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 3x 5
989:23x 43
656:2x 2x 2x 2x 41
648:2x 2x 2x 3x 3x 3x 3
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 2x 2x 3 = 384
Therefore, the value for common factors is 384.
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 = 201797775360/(1x384)
LCM = 201797775360/384
LCM = 525515040
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 480,989,656,648 is 525515040.
