Given numbers are 958,981,249,540
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 958,981,249,540 is 2340097020.
Find LCM of 958,981,249,540 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 958, 981, 249, 540 |
| 3 | 479, 981, 249, 270 |
| 3 | 479, 327, 83, 90 |
| 479, 109, 83, 30 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 3 x 3 x 479 x 109 x 83 x 30 = 2340097020
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 958,981,249,540 is 2340097020.
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.
958 x 981 x 249 x 540 = 126365239080
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.
958 : 1, 2, 479, 958
981 : 1, 3, 9, 109, 327, 981
249 : 1, 3, 83, 249
540 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 10, 12, 15, 18, 20, 27, 30, 36, 45, 54, 60, 90, 108, 135, 180, 270, 540
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 958,981,249,540, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
958:2x 479
981:3x 3x 109
249:3x 83
540:2x 2x 3x 3x 3x 5
From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.
2x 3x 3x 3 = 54
Therefore, the value for common factors is 54.
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 = 126365239080/(1x54)
LCM = 126365239080/54
LCM = 2340097020
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 958,981,249,540 is 2340097020.
