The LCM of 640,856,341,260 is 303571840.
Find LCM of 640,856,341,260 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 640, 856, 341, 260 |
| 2 | 320, 428, 341, 130 |
| 2 | 160, 214, 341, 65 |
| 5 | 80, 107, 341, 65 |
| 16, 107, 341, 13 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 2 x 5 x 16 x 107 x 341 x 13 = 303571840
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 640,856,341,260 is 303571840.
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.
640 x 856 x 341 x 260 = 48571494400
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.
640 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, 32, 40, 64, 80, 128, 160, 320, 640
856 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 107, 214, 428, 856
341 : 1, 11, 31, 341
260 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 13, 20, 26, 52, 65, 130, 260
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 640,856,341,260, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
640:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 5
856:2x 2x 2x 107
341:11x 31
260:2x 2x 5x 13
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 2x 2x 5 = 160
Therefore, the value for common factors is 160.
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 = 48571494400/(1x160)
LCM = 48571494400/160
LCM = 303571840
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 640,856,341,260 is 303571840.
