Find LCM of 966,506,847,259 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 966, 506, 847, 259 |
| 7 | 483, 253, 847, 259 |
| 11 | 69, 253, 121, 37 |
| 23 | 69, 23, 11, 37 |
| 3, 1, 11, 37 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 7 x 11 x 23 x 3 x 1 x 11 x 37 = 4324782
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 966,506,847,259 is 4324782.
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.
966 x 506 x 847 x 259 = 107228644908
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.
966 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21, 23, 42, 46, 69, 138, 161, 322, 483, 966
506 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 23, 46, 253, 506
847 : 1, 7, 11, 77, 121, 847
259 : 1, 7, 37, 259
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 966,506,847,259, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
966:2x 3x 7x 23
506:2x 11x 23
847:7x 11x 11
259:7x 37
From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.
2x 7x 7x 11x 23 = 24794
Therefore, the value for common factors is 24794.
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 = 107228644908/(1x24794)
LCM = 107228644908/24794
LCM = 4324782
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 966,506,847,259 is 4324782.
