Given numbers are 589,862,687,716,978
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 589,862,687,716,978 is 20354007430164.
Find LCM of 589,862,687,716,978 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 589, 862, 687, 716, 978 |
| 3 | 589, 431, 687, 358, 489 |
| 589, 431, 229, 358, 163 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 3 x 589 x 431 x 229 x 358 x 163 = 20354007430164
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 589,862,687,716,978 is 20354007430164.
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.
589 x 862 x 687 x 716 x 978 = 244248089161968
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.
589 : 1, 19, 31, 589
862 : 1, 2, 431, 862
687 : 1, 3, 229, 687
716 : 1, 2, 4, 179, 358, 716
978 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 163, 326, 489, 978
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 589,862,687,716,978, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
589:19x 31
862:2x 431
687:3x 229
716:2x 2x 179
978:2x 3x 163
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 3 = 12
Therefore, the value for common factors is 12.
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 = 244248089161968/(1x12)
LCM = 244248089161968/12
LCM = 20354007430164
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 589,862,687,716,978 is 20354007430164.
