The LCM of 616,261,198,956 is 38425464.
Find LCM of 616,261,198,956 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 616, 261, 198, 956 |
| 2 | 308, 261, 99, 478 |
| 3 | 154, 261, 99, 239 |
| 3 | 154, 87, 33, 239 |
| 11 | 154, 29, 11, 239 |
| 14, 29, 1, 239 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 11 x 14 x 29 x 1 x 239 = 38425464
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 616,261,198,956 is 38425464.
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.
616 x 261 x 198 x 956 = 30432967488
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.
616 : 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 11, 14, 22, 28, 44, 56, 77, 88, 154, 308, 616
261 : 1, 3, 9, 29, 87, 261
198 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 11, 18, 22, 33, 66, 99, 198
956 : 1, 2, 4, 239, 478, 956
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 616,261,198,956, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
616:2x 2x 2x 7x 11
261:3x 3x 29
198:2x 3x 3x 11
956:2x 2x 239
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 11 = 792
Therefore, the value for common factors is 792.
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 = 30432967488/(1x792)
LCM = 30432967488/792
LCM = 38425464
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 616,261,198,956 is 38425464.
