Given numbers are 838,550,370,960
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 838,550,370,960 is 818558400.
Find LCM of 838,550,370,960 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 838, 550, 370, 960 |
| 5 | 419, 275, 185, 480 |
| 419, 55, 37, 96 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 5 x 419 x 55 x 37 x 96 = 818558400
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 838,550,370,960 is 818558400.
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.
838 x 550 x 370 x 960 = 163711680000
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.
838 : 1, 2, 419, 838
550 : 1, 2, 5, 10, 11, 22, 25, 50, 55, 110, 275, 550
370 : 1, 2, 5, 10, 37, 74, 185, 370
960 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 16, 20, 24, 30, 32, 40, 48, 60, 64, 80, 96, 120, 160, 192, 240, 320, 480, 960
2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 838,550,370,960, is 2.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
838:2x 419
550:2x 5x 5x 11
370:2x 5x 37
960:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 3x 5
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 5x 5 = 100
Therefore, the value for common factors is 100.
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 = 163711680000/(2x100)
LCM = 163711680000/200
LCM = 818558400
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 838,550,370,960 is 818558400.
