Given numbers are 729,526,942,260
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 729,526,942,260 is 7826296140.
Find LCM of 729,526,942,260 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 729, 526, 942, 260 |
| 3 | 729, 263, 471, 130 |
| 243, 263, 157, 130 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 3 x 243 x 263 x 157 x 130 = 7826296140
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 729,526,942,260 is 7826296140.
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.
729 x 526 x 942 x 260 = 93915553680
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.
729 : 1, 3, 9, 27, 81, 243, 729
526 : 1, 2, 263, 526
942 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 157, 314, 471, 942
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 729,526,942,260, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
729:3x 3x 3x 3x 3x 3
526:2x 263
942:2x 3x 157
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 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 = 93915553680/(1x12)
LCM = 93915553680/12
LCM = 7826296140
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 729,526,942,260 is 7826296140.
