Calculate the LCM of 862,688,172,342

Given numbers are 862,688,172,342

The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.

The LCM of 862,688,172,342 is 50706288.

Find LCM of 862,688,172,342 with Prime Factorization


2 862, 688, 172, 342
2 431, 344, 86, 171
43 431, 172, 43, 171
431, 4, 1, 171

Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.

2 x 2 x 43 x 431 x 4 x 1 x 171 = 50706288

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 862,688,172,342 is 50706288.

LCM Formula to Find Lowest Common Multiple of 862,688,172,342

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.

862 x 688 x 172 x 342 = 34885926144

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.

862 : 1, 2, 431, 862

688 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 43, 86, 172, 344, 688

172 : 1, 2, 4, 43, 86, 172

342 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 19, 38, 57, 114, 171, 342

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 862,688,172,342, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

862:2x 431

688:2x 2x 2x 2x 43

172:2x 2x 43

342:2x 3x 3x 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 2x 43 = 344

Therefore, the value for common factors is 344.

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 = 34885926144/(2x344)

LCM = 34885926144/688

LCM = 50706288

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 862,688,172,342 is 50706288.
