Find LCM of 896,218,312,231 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 896, 218, 312, 231 |
| 2 | 448, 109, 156, 231 |
| 2 | 224, 109, 78, 231 |
| 3 | 112, 109, 39, 231 |
| 7 | 112, 109, 13, 77 |
| 16, 109, 13, 11 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 7 x 16 x 109 x 13 x 11 = 41897856
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 896,218,312,231 is 41897856.
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.
896 x 218 x 312 x 231 = 14077679616
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.
896 : 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 16, 28, 32, 56, 64, 112, 128, 224, 448, 896
218 : 1, 2, 109, 218
312 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 13, 24, 26, 39, 52, 78, 104, 156, 312
231 : 1, 3, 7, 11, 21, 33, 77, 231
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 896,218,312,231, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
896:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 7
218:2x 109
312:2x 2x 2x 3x 13
231:3x 7x 11
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 3x 7 = 336
Therefore, the value for common factors is 336.
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 = 14077679616/(1x336)
LCM = 14077679616/336
LCM = 41897856
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 896,218,312,231 is 41897856.
