Calculate the LCM of 972,872,334,976

Given numbers are 972,872,334,976

The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.

The LCM of 972,872,334,976 is 4317169104.

Find LCM of 972,872,334,976 with Prime Factorization


2 972, 872, 334, 976
2 486, 436, 167, 488
2 243, 218, 167, 244
243, 109, 167, 122

Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.

2 x 2 x 2 x 243 x 109 x 167 x 122 = 4317169104

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 972,872,334,976 is 4317169104.

LCM Formula to Find Lowest Common Multiple of 972,872,334,976

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.

972 x 872 x 334 x 976 = 276298822656

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.

972 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 27, 36, 54, 81, 108, 162, 243, 324, 486, 972

872 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 109, 218, 436, 872

334 : 1, 2, 167, 334

976 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 61, 122, 244, 488, 976

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 972,872,334,976, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

972:2x 2x 3x 3x 3x 3x 3

872:2x 2x 2x 109

334:2x 167

976:2x 2x 2x 2x 61

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 2 = 32

Therefore, the value for common factors is 32.

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 = 276298822656/(2x32)

LCM = 276298822656/64

LCM = 4317169104

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 972,872,334,976 is 4317169104.
