Given numbers are 978,785,939,604
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 978,785,939,604 is 72570445980.
Find LCM of 978,785,939,604 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 978, 785, 939, 604 |
| 3 | 489, 785, 939, 302 |
| 163, 785, 313, 302 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 3 x 163 x 785 x 313 x 302 = 72570445980
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 978,785,939,604 is 72570445980.
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 785 x 939 x 604 = 435422675880
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
785 : 1, 5, 157, 785
939 : 1, 3, 313, 939
604 : 1, 2, 4, 151, 302, 604
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 978,785,939,604, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
978:2x 3x 163
785:5x 157
939:3x 313
604:2x 2x 151
From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.
2x 3 = 6
Therefore, the value for common factors is 6.
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 = 435422675880/(1x6)
LCM = 435422675880/6
LCM = 72570445980
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 978,785,939,604 is 72570445980.
