Given numbers are 985,950,397,304,241
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 985,950,397,304,241 is 143247604400.
Find LCM of 985,950,397,304,241 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 985, 950, 397, 304, 241 |
| 5 | 985, 475, 397, 152, 241 |
| 19 | 197, 95, 397, 152, 241 |
| 197, 5, 397, 8, 241 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 5 x 19 x 197 x 5 x 397 x 8 x 241 = 143247604400
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 985,950,397,304,241 is 143247604400.
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.
985 x 950 x 397 x 304 x 241 = 27217044836000
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.
985 : 1, 5, 197, 985
950 : 1, 2, 5, 10, 19, 25, 38, 50, 95, 190, 475, 950
397 : 1, 397
304 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 19, 38, 76, 152, 304
241 : 1, 241
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 985,950,397,304,241, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
985:5x 197
950:2x 5x 5x 19
397:397
304:2x 2x 2x 2x 19
241:241
From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.
2x 5x 19 = 190
Therefore, the value for common factors is 190.
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 = 27217044836000/(1x190)
LCM = 27217044836000/190
LCM = 143247604400
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 985,950,397,304,241 is 143247604400.
