Given numbers are 711,237,948,988
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 711,237,948,988 is 702468.
Find LCM of 711,237,948,988 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 711, 237, 948, 988 |
| 2 | 711, 237, 474, 494 |
| 3 | 711, 237, 237, 247 |
| 79 | 79, 79, 237, 247 |
| 1, 1, 3, 247 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 3 x 79 x 1 x 1 x 3 x 247 = 702468
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 711,237,948,988 is 702468.
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.
711 x 237 x 948 x 988 = 157827700368
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.
711 : 1, 3, 9, 79, 237, 711
237 : 1, 3, 79, 237
948 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 79, 158, 237, 316, 474, 948
988 : 1, 2, 4, 13, 19, 26, 38, 52, 76, 247, 494, 988
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 711,237,948,988, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
711:3x 3x 79
237:3x 79
948:2x 2x 3x 79
988:2x 2x 13x 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 2x 3x 3x 79x 79 = 224676
Therefore, the value for common factors is 224676.
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 = 157827700368/(1x224676)
LCM = 157827700368/224676
LCM = 702468
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 711,237,948,988 is 702468.
