Calculate the LCM of 491,256,278,949

Given numbers are 491,256,278,949

The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.

The LCM of 491,256,278,949 is 16580685056.

Find LCM of 491,256,278,949 with Prime Factorization


2 491, 256, 278, 949
491, 128, 139, 949

Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.

2 x 491 x 128 x 139 x 949 = 16580685056

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 491,256,278,949 is 16580685056.

LCM Formula to Find Lowest Common Multiple of 491,256,278,949

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.

491 x 256 x 278 x 949 = 33161370112

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.

491 : 1, 491

256 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256

278 : 1, 2, 139, 278

949 : 1, 13, 73, 949

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 491,256,278,949, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

491:491

256:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 2

278:2x 139

949:13x 73

From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.

2 = 2

Therefore, the value for common factors is 2.

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 = 33161370112/(1x2)

LCM = 33161370112/2

LCM = 16580685056

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 491,256,278,949 is 16580685056.
