The LCM of 986,356,751,952,238 is 1845291112.
Find LCM of 986,356,751,952,238 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 986, 356, 751, 952, 238 |
| 2 | 493, 178, 751, 476, 119 |
| 7 | 493, 89, 751, 238, 119 |
| 17 | 493, 89, 751, 34, 17 |
| 29, 89, 751, 2, 1 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 7 x 17 x 29 x 89 x 751 x 2 x 1 = 1845291112
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 986,356,751,952,238 is 1845291112.
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.
986 x 356 x 751 x 952 x 238 = 59728382713216
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.
986 : 1, 2, 17, 29, 34, 58, 493, 986
356 : 1, 2, 4, 89, 178, 356
751 : 1, 751
952 : 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 17, 28, 34, 56, 68, 119, 136, 238, 476, 952
238 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 17, 34, 119, 238
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 986,356,751,952,238, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
986:2x 17x 29
356:2x 2x 89
751:751
952:2x 2x 2x 7x 17
238:2x 7x 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 2x 2x 2x 7x 17x 17 = 32368
Therefore, the value for common factors is 32368.
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 = 59728382713216/(1x32368)
LCM = 59728382713216/32368
LCM = 1845291112
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 986,356,751,952,238 is 1845291112.
