Calculate the LCM of 987,278,988,376

Given numbers are 987,278,988,376

The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.

The LCM of 987,278,988,376 is 271093368.

Find LCM of 987,278,988,376 with Prime Factorization


2 987, 278, 988, 376
2 987, 139, 494, 188
47 987, 139, 247, 94
21, 139, 247, 2

Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.

2 x 2 x 47 x 21 x 139 x 247 x 2 = 271093368

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 987,278,988,376 is 271093368.

LCM Formula to Find Lowest Common Multiple of 987,278,988,376

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.

987 x 278 x 988 x 376 = 101931106368

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.

987 : 1, 3, 7, 21, 47, 141, 329, 987

278 : 1, 2, 139, 278

988 : 1, 2, 4, 13, 19, 26, 38, 52, 76, 247, 494, 988

376 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 47, 94, 188, 376

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 987,278,988,376, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

987:3x 7x 47

278:2x 139

988:2x 2x 13x 19

376:2x 2x 2x 47

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 47 = 376

Therefore, the value for common factors is 376.

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 = 101931106368/(1x376)

LCM = 101931106368/376

LCM = 271093368

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 987,278,988,376 is 271093368.
