Given numbers are 561,165,960,257
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 561,165,960,257 is 46136640.
Find LCM of 561,165,960,257 with Prime Factorization
| 3 | 561, 165, 960, 257 |
| 5 | 187, 55, 320, 257 |
| 11 | 187, 11, 64, 257 |
| 17, 1, 64, 257 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
3 x 5 x 11 x 17 x 1 x 64 x 257 = 46136640
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 561,165,960,257 is 46136640.
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.
561 x 165 x 960 x 257 = 22837636800
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.
561 : 1, 3, 11, 17, 33, 51, 187, 561
165 : 1, 3, 5, 11, 15, 33, 55, 165
960 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 16, 20, 24, 30, 32, 40, 48, 60, 64, 80, 96, 120, 160, 192, 240, 320, 480, 960
257 : 1, 257
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 561,165,960,257, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
561:3x 11x 17
165:3x 5x 11
960:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 3x 5
257:257
From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.
3x 3x 5x 11 = 495
Therefore, the value for common factors is 495.
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 = 22837636800/(1x495)
LCM = 22837636800/495
LCM = 46136640
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 561,165,960,257 is 46136640.
