Given numbers are 659,478,430,285
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 659,478,430,285 is 3860349510.
Find LCM of 659,478,430,285 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 659, 478, 430, 285 |
| 5 | 659, 239, 215, 285 |
| 659, 239, 43, 57 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 5 x 659 x 239 x 43 x 57 = 3860349510
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 659,478,430,285 is 3860349510.
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.
659 x 478 x 430 x 285 = 38603495100
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.
659 : 1, 659
478 : 1, 2, 239, 478
430 : 1, 2, 5, 10, 43, 86, 215, 430
285 : 1, 3, 5, 15, 19, 57, 95, 285
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 659,478,430,285, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
659:659
478:2x 239
430:2x 5x 43
285:3x 5x 19
From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.
2x 5 = 10
Therefore, the value for common factors is 10.
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 = 38603495100/(1x10)
LCM = 38603495100/10
LCM = 3860349510
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 659,478,430,285 is 3860349510.
