Given numbers are 578,946,172,544
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 578,946,172,544 is 4374304.
Find LCM of 578,946,172,544 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 578, 946, 172, 544 |
| 2 | 289, 473, 86, 272 |
| 17 | 289, 473, 43, 136 |
| 43 | 17, 473, 43, 8 |
| 17, 11, 1, 8 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 17 x 43 x 17 x 11 x 1 x 8 = 4374304
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 578,946,172,544 is 4374304.
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.
578 x 946 x 172 x 544 = 51161859584
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.
578 : 1, 2, 17, 34, 289, 578
946 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 43, 86, 473, 946
172 : 1, 2, 4, 43, 86, 172
544 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 17, 32, 34, 68, 136, 272, 544
2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 578,946,172,544, is 2.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
578:2x 17x 17
946:2x 11x 43
172:2x 2x 43
544:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 17
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 17x 43 = 5848
Therefore, the value for common factors is 5848.
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 = 51161859584/(2x5848)
LCM = 51161859584/11696
LCM = 4374304
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 578,946,172,544 is 4374304.
