Given numbers are 989,978,172,192
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 989,978,172,192 is 30951744.
Find LCM of 989,978,172,192 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 989, 978, 172, 192 |
| 2 | 989, 489, 86, 96 |
| 3 | 989, 489, 43, 48 |
| 43 | 989, 163, 43, 16 |
| 23, 163, 1, 16 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 3 x 43 x 23 x 163 x 1 x 16 = 30951744
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 989,978,172,192 is 30951744.
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.
989 x 978 x 172 x 192 = 31942199808
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.
989 : 1, 23, 43, 989
978 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 163, 326, 489, 978
172 : 1, 2, 4, 43, 86, 172
192 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 32, 48, 64, 96, 192
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 989,978,172,192, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
989:23x 43
978:2x 3x 163
172:2x 2x 43
192:2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 3
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 3x 43 = 1032
Therefore, the value for common factors is 1032.
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 = 31942199808/(1x1032)
LCM = 31942199808/1032
LCM = 30951744
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 989,978,172,192 is 30951744.
