Given numbers are 634,951,861,978
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 634,951,861,978 is 88977462.
Find LCM of 634,951,861,978 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 634, 951, 861, 978 |
| 3 | 317, 951, 861, 489 |
| 317 | 317, 317, 287, 163 |
| 1, 1, 287, 163 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 3 x 317 x 1 x 1 x 287 x 163 = 88977462
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 634,951,861,978 is 88977462.
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.
634 x 951 x 861 x 978 = 507705398172
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.
634 : 1, 2, 317, 634
951 : 1, 3, 317, 951
861 : 1, 3, 7, 21, 41, 123, 287, 861
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 634,951,861,978, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
634:2x 317
951:3x 317
861:3x 7x 41
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 3x 3x 317 = 5706
Therefore, the value for common factors is 5706.
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 = 507705398172/(1x5706)
LCM = 507705398172/5706
LCM = 88977462
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 634,951,861,978 is 88977462.
