Find LCM of 878,704,960,438 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 878, 704, 960, 438 |
| 2 | 439, 352, 480, 219 |
| 2 | 439, 176, 240, 219 |
| 2 | 439, 88, 120, 219 |
| 2 | 439, 44, 60, 219 |
| 2 | 439, 22, 30, 219 |
| 3 | 439, 11, 15, 219 |
| 439, 11, 5, 73 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 439 x 11 x 5 x 73 = 338416320
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 878,704,960,438 is 338416320.
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.
878 x 704 x 960 x 438 = 259903733760
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.
878 : 1, 2, 439, 878
704 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 11, 16, 22, 32, 44, 64, 88, 176, 352, 704
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
438 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 73, 146, 219, 438
2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 878,704,960,438, is 2.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
878:2x 439
704:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 11
960:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 3x 5
438:2x 3x 73
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 2x 3 = 384
Therefore, the value for common factors is 384.
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 = 259903733760/(2x384)
LCM = 259903733760/768
LCM = 338416320
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 878,704,960,438 is 338416320.
