Find LCM of 940,338,715,862,852 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 940, 338, 715, 862, 852 |
| 2 | 470, 169, 715, 431, 426 |
| 5 | 235, 169, 715, 431, 213 |
| 13 | 47, 169, 143, 431, 213 |
| 47, 13, 11, 431, 213 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 5 x 13 x 47 x 13 x 11 x 431 x 213 = 160422070380
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 940,338,715,862,852 is 160422070380.
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.
940 x 338 x 715 x 862 x 852 = 166838953195200
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.
940 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 47, 94, 188, 235, 470, 940
338 : 1, 2, 13, 26, 169, 338
715 : 1, 5, 11, 13, 55, 65, 143, 715
862 : 1, 2, 431, 862
852 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 71, 142, 213, 284, 426, 852
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 940,338,715,862,852, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
940:2x 2x 5x 47
338:2x 13x 13
715:5x 11x 13
862:2x 431
852:2x 2x 3x 71
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 5x 13 = 1040
Therefore, the value for common factors is 1040.
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 = 166838953195200/(1x1040)
LCM = 166838953195200/1040
LCM = 160422070380
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 940,338,715,862,852 is 160422070380.
