Given numbers are 872,507,506,169
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 872,507,506,169 is 111852312.
Find LCM of 872,507,506,169 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 872, 507, 506, 169 |
| 13 | 436, 507, 253, 169 |
| 13 | 436, 39, 253, 13 |
| 436, 3, 253, 1 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 13 x 13 x 436 x 3 x 253 x 1 = 111852312
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 872,507,506,169 is 111852312.
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.
872 x 507 x 506 x 169 = 37806081456
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.
872 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 109, 218, 436, 872
507 : 1, 3, 13, 39, 169, 507
506 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 23, 46, 253, 506
169 : 1, 13, 169
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 872,507,506,169, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
872:2x 2x 2x 109
507:3x 13x 13
506:2x 11x 23
169:13x 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 13x 13 = 338
Therefore, the value for common factors is 338.
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 = 37806081456/(1x338)
LCM = 37806081456/338
LCM = 111852312
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 872,507,506,169 is 111852312.
