Calculate the LCM of 51,16,89,972

Given numbers are 51,16,89,972

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

The LCM of 51,16,89,972 is 5882544.

Find LCM of 51,16,89,972 with Prime Factorization


2 51, 16, 89, 972
2 51, 8, 89, 486
3 51, 4, 89, 243
17, 4, 89, 81

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

2 x 2 x 3 x 17 x 4 x 89 x 81 = 5882544

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 51,16,89,972 is 5882544.

LCM Formula to Find Lowest Common Multiple of 51,16,89,972

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.

51 x 16 x 89 x 972 = 70590528

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.

51 : 1, 3, 17, 51

16 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16

89 : 1, 89

972 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 27, 36, 54, 81, 108, 162, 243, 324, 486, 972

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 51,16,89,972, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

51:3x 17

16:2x 2x 2x 2

89:89

972:2x 2x 3x 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 3 = 12

Therefore, the value for common factors is 12.

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 = 70590528/(1x12)

LCM = 70590528/12

LCM = 5882544

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 51,16,89,972 is 5882544.
