Find LCM of 978,168,434,609,376 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 978, 168, 434, 609, 376 |
| 2 | 489, 84, 217, 609, 188 |
| 2 | 489, 42, 217, 609, 94 |
| 3 | 489, 21, 217, 609, 47 |
| 7 | 163, 7, 217, 203, 47 |
| 163, 1, 31, 29, 47 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 7 x 163 x 1 x 31 x 29 x 47 = 1157056152
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 978,168,434,609,376 is 1157056152.
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.
978 x 168 x 434 x 609 x 376 = 16328376417024
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.
978 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 163, 326, 489, 978
168 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 12, 14, 21, 24, 28, 42, 56, 84, 168
434 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 31, 62, 217, 434
609 : 1, 3, 7, 21, 29, 87, 203, 609
376 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 47, 94, 188, 376
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 978,168,434,609,376, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
978:2x 3x 163
168:2x 2x 2x 3x 7
434:2x 7x 31
609:3x 7x 29
376:2x 2x 2x 47
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 3x 3x 7x 7 = 14112
Therefore, the value for common factors is 14112.
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 = 16328376417024/(1x14112)
LCM = 16328376417024/14112
LCM = 1157056152
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 978,168,434,609,376 is 1157056152.
