Given numbers are 636,851,946,851
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 636,851,946,851 is 256004628.
Find LCM of 636,851,946,851 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 636, 851, 946, 851 |
| 23 | 318, 851, 473, 851 |
| 37 | 318, 37, 473, 37 |
| 318, 1, 473, 1 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 23 x 37 x 318 x 1 x 473 x 1 = 256004628
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 636,851,946,851 is 256004628.
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.
636 x 851 x 946 x 851 = 435719876856
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.
636 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 53, 106, 159, 212, 318, 636
851 : 1, 23, 37, 851
946 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 43, 86, 473, 946
851 : 1, 23, 37, 851
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 636,851,946,851, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
636:2x 2x 3x 53
851:23x 37
946:2x 11x 43
851:23x 37
From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.
2x 23x 37 = 1702
Therefore, the value for common factors is 1702.
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 = 435719876856/(1x1702)
LCM = 435719876856/1702
LCM = 256004628
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 636,851,946,851 is 256004628.
