The LCM of 484,972,396,660 is 588060.
Find LCM of 484,972,396,660 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 484, 972, 396, 660 |
| 2 | 242, 486, 198, 330 |
| 3 | 121, 243, 99, 165 |
| 3 | 121, 81, 33, 55 |
| 11 | 121, 27, 11, 55 |
| 1, 27, 11, 5 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 11 x 1 x 27 x 11 x 5 = 588060
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 484,972,396,660 is 588060.
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.
484 x 972 x 396 x 660 = 122956289280
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.
484 : 1, 2, 4, 11, 22, 44, 121, 242, 484
972 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 27, 36, 54, 81, 108, 162, 243, 324, 486, 972
396 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 11, 12, 18, 22, 33, 36, 44, 66, 99, 132, 198, 396
660 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 11, 12, 15, 20, 22, 30, 33, 44, 55, 60, 66, 110, 132, 165, 220, 330, 660
4 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 484,972,396,660, is 4.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
484:2x 2x 11x 11
972:2x 2x 3x 3x 3x 3x 3
396:2x 2x 3x 3x 11
660:2x 2x 3x 5x 11
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 3x 11x 11 = 52272
Therefore, the value for common factors is 52272.
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 = 122956289280/(4x52272)
LCM = 122956289280/209088
LCM = 588060
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 484,972,396,660 is 588060.
