Find LCM of 948,474,242,596,599 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 948, 474, 242, 596, 599 |
| 2 | 474, 237, 121, 298, 599 |
| 3 | 237, 237, 121, 149, 599 |
| 79 | 79, 79, 121, 149, 599 |
| 1, 1, 121, 149, 599 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 3 x 79 x 1 x 1 x 121 x 149 x 599 = 10237803708
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 948,474,242,596,599 is 10237803708.
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 474 x 242 x 596 x 599 = 38821751660736
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
474 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 79, 158, 237, 474
242 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 121, 242
596 : 1, 2, 4, 149, 298, 596
599 : 1, 599
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 948,474,242,596,599, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
948:2x 2x 3x 79
474:2x 3x 79
242:2x 11x 11
596:2x 2x 149
599:599
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 79 = 3792
Therefore, the value for common factors is 3792.
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 = 38821751660736/(1x3792)
LCM = 38821751660736/3792
LCM = 10237803708
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 948,474,242,596,599 is 10237803708.
