The LCM of 555,859,142,284,261 is 11779415460.
Find LCM of 555,859,142,284,261 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 555, 859, 142, 284, 261 |
| 3 | 555, 859, 71, 142, 261 |
| 71 | 185, 859, 71, 142, 87 |
| 185, 859, 1, 2, 87 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 3 x 71 x 185 x 859 x 1 x 2 x 87 = 11779415460
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 555,859,142,284,261 is 11779415460.
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.
555 x 859 x 142 x 284 x 261 = 5018030985960
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.
555 : 1, 3, 5, 15, 37, 111, 185, 555
859 : 1, 859
142 : 1, 2, 71, 142
284 : 1, 2, 4, 71, 142, 284
261 : 1, 3, 9, 29, 87, 261
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 555,859,142,284,261, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
555:3x 5x 37
859:859
142:2x 71
284:2x 2x 71
261:3x 3x 29
From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.
2x 3x 71 = 426
Therefore, the value for common factors is 426.
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 = 5018030985960/(1x426)
LCM = 5018030985960/426
LCM = 11779415460
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 555,859,142,284,261 is 11779415460.
