Given numbers are 737,968,159,212
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 737,968,159,212 is 10312104.
Find LCM of 737,968,159,212 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 737, 968, 159, 212 |
| 2 | 737, 484, 159, 106 |
| 11 | 737, 242, 159, 53 |
| 53 | 67, 22, 159, 53 |
| 67, 22, 3, 1 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 11 x 53 x 67 x 22 x 3 x 1 = 10312104
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 737,968,159,212 is 10312104.
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.
737 x 968 x 159 x 212 = 24047826528
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.
737 : 1, 11, 67, 737
968 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 11, 22, 44, 88, 121, 242, 484, 968
159 : 1, 3, 53, 159
212 : 1, 2, 4, 53, 106, 212
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 737,968,159,212, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
737:11x 67
968:2x 2x 2x 11x 11
159:3x 53
212:2x 2x 53
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 11x 53 = 2332
Therefore, the value for common factors is 2332.
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 = 24047826528/(1x2332)
LCM = 24047826528/2332
LCM = 10312104
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 737,968,159,212 is 10312104.
