The LCM of 960,979,785,561 is 2508432960.
Find LCM of 960,979,785,561 with Prime Factorization
| 3 | 960, 979, 785, 561 |
| 5 | 320, 979, 785, 187 |
| 11 | 64, 979, 157, 187 |
| 64, 89, 157, 17 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
3 x 5 x 11 x 64 x 89 x 157 x 17 = 2508432960
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 960,979,785,561 is 2508432960.
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.
960 x 979 x 785 x 561 = 413891438400
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.
960 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 16, 20, 24, 30, 32, 40, 48, 60, 64, 80, 96, 120, 160, 192, 240, 320, 480, 960
979 : 1, 11, 89, 979
785 : 1, 5, 157, 785
561 : 1, 3, 11, 17, 33, 51, 187, 561
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 960,979,785,561, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
960:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 3x 5
979:11x 89
785:5x 157
561:3x 11x 17
From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.
3x 5x 11 = 165
Therefore, the value for common factors is 165.
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 = 413891438400/(1x165)
LCM = 413891438400/165
LCM = 2508432960
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 960,979,785,561 is 2508432960.
