Given numbers are 507,260,936,542
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 507,260,936,542 is 16487640.
Find LCM of 507,260,936,542 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 507, 260, 936, 542 |
| 2 | 507, 130, 468, 271 |
| 3 | 507, 65, 234, 271 |
| 13 | 169, 65, 78, 271 |
| 13, 5, 6, 271 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 3 x 13 x 13 x 5 x 6 x 271 = 16487640
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 507,260,936,542 is 16487640.
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.
507 x 260 x 936 x 542 = 66873867840
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.
507 : 1, 3, 13, 39, 169, 507
260 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 13, 20, 26, 52, 65, 130, 260
936 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 13, 18, 24, 26, 36, 39, 52, 72, 78, 104, 117, 156, 234, 312, 468, 936
542 : 1, 2, 271, 542
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 507,260,936,542, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
507:3x 13x 13
260:2x 2x 5x 13
936:2x 2x 2x 3x 3x 13
542:2x 271
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 13x 13 = 4056
Therefore, the value for common factors is 4056.
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 = 66873867840/(1x4056)
LCM = 66873867840/4056
LCM = 16487640
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 507,260,936,542 is 16487640.
