Find LCM of 522,668,609,956,242 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 522, 668, 609, 956, 242 |
| 2 | 261, 334, 609, 478, 121 |
| 3 | 261, 167, 609, 239, 121 |
| 29 | 87, 167, 203, 239, 121 |
| 3, 167, 7, 239, 121 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 3 x 29 x 3 x 167 x 7 x 239 x 121 = 35293788684
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 522,668,609,956,242 is 35293788684.
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.
522 x 668 x 609 x 956 x 242 = 49128953848128
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.
522 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 29, 58, 87, 174, 261, 522
668 : 1, 2, 4, 167, 334, 668
609 : 1, 3, 7, 21, 29, 87, 203, 609
956 : 1, 2, 4, 239, 478, 956
242 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 121, 242
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 522,668,609,956,242, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
522:2x 3x 3x 29
668:2x 2x 167
609:3x 7x 29
956:2x 2x 239
242:2x 11x 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 29 = 1392
Therefore, the value for common factors is 1392.
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 = 49128953848128/(1x1392)
LCM = 49128953848128/1392
LCM = 35293788684
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 522,668,609,956,242 is 35293788684.
