Given numbers are 668,391,487,312
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 668,391,487,312 is 9921487368.
Find LCM of 668,391,487,312 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 668, 391, 487, 312 |
| 2 | 334, 391, 487, 156 |
| 167, 391, 487, 78 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 167 x 391 x 487 x 78 = 9921487368
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 668,391,487,312 is 9921487368.
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.
668 x 391 x 487 x 312 = 39685949472
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.
668 : 1, 2, 4, 167, 334, 668
391 : 1, 17, 23, 391
487 : 1, 487
312 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 13, 24, 26, 39, 52, 78, 104, 156, 312
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 668,391,487,312, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
668:2x 2x 167
391:17x 23
487:487
312:2x 2x 2x 3x 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 2 = 4
Therefore, the value for common factors is 4.
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 = 39685949472/(1x4)
LCM = 39685949472/4
LCM = 9921487368
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 668,391,487,312 is 9921487368.
