Given numbers are 531,968,295,950
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 531,968,295,950 is 244153800.
Find LCM of 531,968,295,950 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 531, 968, 295, 950 |
| 5 | 531, 484, 295, 475 |
| 59 | 531, 484, 59, 95 |
| 9, 484, 1, 95 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 5 x 59 x 9 x 484 x 1 x 95 = 244153800
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 531,968,295,950 is 244153800.
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.
531 x 968 x 295 x 950 = 144050742000
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.
531 : 1, 3, 9, 59, 177, 531
968 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 11, 22, 44, 88, 121, 242, 484, 968
295 : 1, 5, 59, 295
950 : 1, 2, 5, 10, 19, 25, 38, 50, 95, 190, 475, 950
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 531,968,295,950, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
531:3x 3x 59
968:2x 2x 2x 11x 11
295:5x 59
950:2x 5x 5x 19
From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.
2x 5x 59 = 590
Therefore, the value for common factors is 590.
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 = 144050742000/(1x590)
LCM = 144050742000/590
LCM = 244153800
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 531,968,295,950 is 244153800.
