Given numbers are 978,870,397,794
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 978,870,397,794 is 56298570.
Find LCM of 978,870,397,794 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 978, 870, 397, 794 |
| 3 | 489, 435, 397, 397 |
| 397 | 163, 145, 397, 397 |
| 163, 145, 1, 1 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 3 x 397 x 163 x 145 x 1 x 1 = 56298570
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 978,870,397,794 is 56298570.
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 870 x 397 x 794 = 268206387480
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
870 : 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, 29, 30, 58, 87, 145, 174, 290, 435, 870
397 : 1, 397
794 : 1, 2, 397, 794
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 978,870,397,794, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
978:2x 3x 163
870:2x 3x 5x 29
397:397
794:2x 397
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 397 = 4764
Therefore, the value for common factors is 4764.
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 = 268206387480/(1x4764)
LCM = 268206387480/4764
LCM = 56298570
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 978,870,397,794 is 56298570.
