Given numbers are 984,958,205,280
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 984,958,205,280 is 16496760.
Find LCM of 984,958,205,280 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 984, 958, 205, 280 |
| 2 | 492, 479, 205, 140 |
| 2 | 246, 479, 205, 70 |
| 5 | 123, 479, 205, 35 |
| 41 | 123, 479, 41, 7 |
| 3, 479, 1, 7 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 2 x 5 x 41 x 3 x 479 x 1 x 7 = 16496760
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 984,958,205,280 is 16496760.
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.
984 x 958 x 205 x 280 = 54109372800
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.
984 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 41, 82, 123, 164, 246, 328, 492, 984
958 : 1, 2, 479, 958
205 : 1, 5, 41, 205
280 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 8, 10, 14, 20, 28, 35, 40, 56, 70, 140, 280
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 984,958,205,280, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
984:2x 2x 2x 3x 41
958:2x 479
205:5x 41
280:2x 2x 2x 5x 7
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 5x 41 = 3280
Therefore, the value for common factors is 3280.
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 = 54109372800/(1x3280)
LCM = 54109372800/3280
LCM = 16496760
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 984,958,205,280 is 16496760.
