The LCM of 598,234,391,978 is 14913522.
Find LCM of 598,234,391,978 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 598, 234, 391, 978 |
| 3 | 299, 117, 391, 489 |
| 13 | 299, 39, 391, 163 |
| 23 | 23, 3, 391, 163 |
| 1, 3, 17, 163 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 3 x 13 x 23 x 1 x 3 x 17 x 163 = 14913522
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 598,234,391,978 is 14913522.
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.
598 x 234 x 391 x 978 = 53509716936
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.
598 : 1, 2, 13, 23, 26, 46, 299, 598
234 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 13, 18, 26, 39, 78, 117, 234
391 : 1, 17, 23, 391
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 598,234,391,978, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
598:2x 13x 23
234:2x 3x 3x 13
391:17x 23
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 3x 13x 23 = 3588
Therefore, the value for common factors is 3588.
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 = 53509716936/(1x3588)
LCM = 53509716936/3588
LCM = 14913522
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 598,234,391,978 is 14913522.
