Given numbers are 646,942,324,179
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 646,942,324,179 is 2941035156.
Find LCM of 646,942,324,179 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 646, 942, 324, 179 |
| 3 | 323, 471, 162, 179 |
| 323, 157, 54, 179 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 3 x 323 x 157 x 54 x 179 = 2941035156
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 646,942,324,179 is 2941035156.
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.
646 x 942 x 324 x 179 = 35292421872
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.
646 : 1, 2, 17, 19, 34, 38, 323, 646
942 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 157, 314, 471, 942
324 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 27, 36, 54, 81, 108, 162, 324
179 : 1, 179
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 646,942,324,179, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
646:2x 17x 19
942:2x 3x 157
324:2x 2x 3x 3x 3x 3
179:179
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 3 = 12
Therefore, the value for common factors is 12.
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 = 35292421872/(1x12)
LCM = 35292421872/12
LCM = 2941035156
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 646,942,324,179 is 2941035156.
