The LCM of 552,609,240,482 is 270054960.
Find LCM of 552,609,240,482 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 552, 609, 240, 482 |
| 2 | 276, 609, 120, 241 |
| 2 | 138, 609, 60, 241 |
| 3 | 69, 609, 30, 241 |
| 23, 203, 10, 241 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 23 x 203 x 10 x 241 = 270054960
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 552,609,240,482 is 270054960.
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.
552 x 609 x 240 x 482 = 38887914240
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.
552 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 23, 24, 46, 69, 92, 138, 184, 276, 552
609 : 1, 3, 7, 21, 29, 87, 203, 609
240 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 16, 20, 24, 30, 40, 48, 60, 80, 120, 240
482 : 1, 2, 241, 482
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 552,609,240,482, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
552:2x 2x 2x 3x 23
609:3x 7x 29
240:2x 2x 2x 2x 3x 5
482:2x 241
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 3 = 144
Therefore, the value for common factors is 144.
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 = 38887914240/(1x144)
LCM = 38887914240/144
LCM = 270054960
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 552,609,240,482 is 270054960.
