Given numbers are 981,418,436,255
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 981,418,436,255 is 69709860.
Find LCM of 981,418,436,255 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 981, 418, 436, 255 |
| 3 | 981, 209, 218, 255 |
| 109 | 327, 209, 218, 85 |
| 3, 209, 2, 85 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 3 x 109 x 3 x 209 x 2 x 85 = 69709860
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 981,418,436,255 is 69709860.
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.
981 x 418 x 436 x 255 = 45590248440
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.
981 : 1, 3, 9, 109, 327, 981
418 : 1, 2, 11, 19, 22, 38, 209, 418
436 : 1, 2, 4, 109, 218, 436
255 : 1, 3, 5, 15, 17, 51, 85, 255
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 981,418,436,255, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
981:3x 3x 109
418:2x 11x 19
436:2x 2x 109
255:3x 5x 17
From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.
2x 3x 109 = 654
Therefore, the value for common factors is 654.
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 = 45590248440/(1x654)
LCM = 45590248440/654
LCM = 69709860
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 981,418,436,255 is 69709860.
