Find LCM of 848,696,346,292,978 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 848, 696, 346, 292, 978 |
| 2 | 424, 348, 173, 146, 489 |
| 2 | 212, 174, 173, 73, 489 |
| 3 | 106, 87, 173, 73, 489 |
| 106, 29, 173, 73, 163 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 106 x 29 x 173 x 73 x 163 = 151869887952
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 848,696,346,292,978 is 151869887952.
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.
848 x 696 x 346 x 292 x 978 = 58318036973568
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.
848 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 53, 106, 212, 424, 848
696 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 29, 58, 87, 116, 174, 232, 348, 696
346 : 1, 2, 173, 346
292 : 1, 2, 4, 73, 146, 292
978 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 163, 326, 489, 978
2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 848,696,346,292,978, is 2.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
848:2x 2x 2x 2x 53
696:2x 2x 2x 3x 29
346:2x 173
292:2x 2x 73
978:2x 3x 163
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 2x 2x 2x 2x 3 = 192
Therefore, the value for common factors is 192.
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 = 58318036973568/(2x192)
LCM = 58318036973568/384
LCM = 151869887952
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 848,696,346,292,978 is 151869887952.
