Given numbers are 957,363,945,946
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 957,363,945,946 is 285176430.
Find LCM of 957,363,945,946 with Prime Factorization
| 3 | 957, 363, 945, 946 |
| 11 | 319, 121, 315, 946 |
| 29, 11, 315, 86 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
3 x 11 x 29 x 11 x 315 x 86 = 285176430
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 957,363,945,946 is 285176430.
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.
957 x 363 x 945 x 946 = 310557132270
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.
957 : 1, 3, 11, 29, 33, 87, 319, 957
363 : 1, 3, 11, 33, 121, 363
945 : 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 15, 21, 27, 35, 45, 63, 105, 135, 189, 315, 945
946 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 43, 86, 473, 946
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 957,363,945,946, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
957:3x 11x 29
363:3x 11x 11
945:3x 3x 3x 5x 7
946:2x 11x 43
From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.
3x 3x 11x 11 = 1089
Therefore, the value for common factors is 1089.
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 = 310557132270/(1x1089)
LCM = 310557132270/1089
LCM = 285176430
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 957,363,945,946 is 285176430.
