Find LCM of 978,781,270,666,285 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 978, 781, 270, 666, 285 |
| 3 | 489, 781, 135, 333, 285 |
| 3 | 163, 781, 45, 111, 95 |
| 5 | 163, 781, 15, 37, 95 |
| 163, 781, 3, 37, 19 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 3 x 3 x 5 x 163 x 781 x 3 x 37 x 19 = 24163382430
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 978,781,270,666,285 is 24163382430.
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 781 x 270 x 666 x 285 = 39144679536600
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
781 : 1, 11, 71, 781
270 : 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 15, 18, 27, 30, 45, 54, 90, 135, 270
666 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 37, 74, 111, 222, 333, 666
285 : 1, 3, 5, 15, 19, 57, 95, 285
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 978,781,270,666,285, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
978:2x 3x 163
781:11x 71
270:2x 3x 3x 3x 5
666:2x 3x 3x 37
285:3x 5x 19
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 3x 3x 3x 3x 5 = 1620
Therefore, the value for common factors is 1620.
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 = 39144679536600/(1x1620)
LCM = 39144679536600/1620
LCM = 24163382430
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 978,781,270,666,285 is 24163382430.
