Find LCM of 968,374,669,984,480 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 968, 374, 669, 984, 480 |
| 2 | 484, 187, 669, 492, 240 |
| 2 | 242, 187, 669, 246, 120 |
| 3 | 121, 187, 669, 123, 60 |
| 11 | 121, 187, 223, 41, 20 |
| 11, 17, 223, 41, 20 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 11 x 11 x 17 x 223 x 41 x 20 = 9027432480
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 968,374,669,984,480 is 9027432480.
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.
968 x 374 x 669 x 984 x 480 = 114395624386560
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.
968 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 11, 22, 44, 88, 121, 242, 484, 968
374 : 1, 2, 11, 17, 22, 34, 187, 374
669 : 1, 3, 223, 669
984 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 41, 82, 123, 164, 246, 328, 492, 984
480 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 16, 20, 24, 30, 32, 40, 48, 60, 80, 96, 120, 160, 240, 480
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 968,374,669,984,480, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
968:2x 2x 2x 11x 11
374:2x 11x 17
669:3x 223
984:2x 2x 2x 3x 41
480:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 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 2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 3x 3x 11 = 12672
Therefore, the value for common factors is 12672.
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 = 114395624386560/(1x12672)
LCM = 114395624386560/12672
LCM = 9027432480
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 968,374,669,984,480 is 9027432480.
