Given numbers are 948,237,539,979
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 948,237,539,979 is 45476508.
Find LCM of 948,237,539,979 with Prime Factorization
| 3 | 948, 237, 539, 979 |
| 11 | 316, 79, 539, 979 |
| 79 | 316, 79, 49, 89 |
| 4, 1, 49, 89 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
3 x 11 x 79 x 4 x 1 x 49 x 89 = 45476508
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 948,237,539,979 is 45476508.
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.
948 x 237 x 539 x 979 = 118557256356
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.
948 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 79, 158, 237, 316, 474, 948
237 : 1, 3, 79, 237
539 : 1, 7, 11, 49, 77, 539
979 : 1, 11, 89, 979
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 948,237,539,979, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
948:2x 2x 3x 79
237:3x 79
539:7x 7x 11
979:11x 89
From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.
3x 11x 79 = 2607
Therefore, the value for common factors is 2607.
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 = 118557256356/(1x2607)
LCM = 118557256356/2607
LCM = 45476508
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 948,237,539,979 is 45476508.
