Given numbers are 542,482,295,470,968
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 542,482,295,470,968 is 876559830520.
Find LCM of 542,482,295,470,968 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 542, 482, 295, 470, 968 |
| 5 | 271, 241, 295, 235, 484 |
| 271, 241, 59, 47, 484 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 5 x 271 x 241 x 59 x 47 x 484 = 876559830520
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 542,482,295,470,968 is 876559830520.
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.
542 x 482 x 295 x 470 x 968 = 35062393220800
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.
542 : 1, 2, 271, 542
482 : 1, 2, 241, 482
295 : 1, 5, 59, 295
470 : 1, 2, 5, 10, 47, 94, 235, 470
968 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 11, 22, 44, 88, 121, 242, 484, 968
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 542,482,295,470,968, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
542:2x 271
482:2x 241
295:5x 59
470:2x 5x 47
968:2x 2x 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 5 = 40
Therefore, the value for common factors is 40.
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 = 35062393220800/(1x40)
LCM = 35062393220800/40
LCM = 876559830520
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 542,482,295,470,968 is 876559830520.
