Find LCM of 579,962,888,157,420 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 579, 962, 888, 157, 420 |
| 2 | 579, 481, 444, 157, 210 |
| 3 | 579, 481, 222, 157, 105 |
| 37 | 193, 481, 74, 157, 35 |
| 193, 13, 2, 157, 35 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 3 x 37 x 193 x 13 x 2 x 157 x 35 = 12242816040
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 579,962,888,157,420 is 12242816040.
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.
579 x 962 x 888 x 157 x 420 = 32614861930560
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.
579 : 1, 3, 193, 579
962 : 1, 2, 13, 26, 37, 74, 481, 962
888 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 37, 74, 111, 148, 222, 296, 444, 888
157 : 1, 157
420 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10, 12, 14, 15, 20, 21, 28, 30, 35, 42, 60, 70, 84, 105, 140, 210, 420
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 579,962,888,157,420, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
579:3x 193
962:2x 13x 37
888:2x 2x 2x 3x 37
157:157
420:2x 2x 3x 5x 7
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 3x 3x 37 = 2664
Therefore, the value for common factors is 2664.
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 = 32614861930560/(1x2664)
LCM = 32614861930560/2664
LCM = 12242816040
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 579,962,888,157,420 is 12242816040.
