Given numbers are 999,578,281,429,163
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 999,578,281,429,163 is 3782015360838.
Find LCM of 999,578,281,429,163 with Prime Factorization
| 3 | 999, 578, 281, 429, 163 |
| 333, 578, 281, 143, 163 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
3 x 333 x 578 x 281 x 143 x 163 = 3782015360838
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 999,578,281,429,163 is 3782015360838.
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.
999 x 578 x 281 x 429 x 163 = 11346046082514
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.
999 : 1, 3, 9, 27, 37, 111, 333, 999
578 : 1, 2, 17, 34, 289, 578
281 : 1, 281
429 : 1, 3, 11, 13, 33, 39, 143, 429
163 : 1, 163
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 999,578,281,429,163, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
999:3x 3x 3x 37
578:2x 17x 17
281:281
429:3x 11x 13
163:163
From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.
3 = 3
Therefore, the value for common factors is 3.
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 = 11346046082514/(1x3)
LCM = 11346046082514/3
LCM = 3782015360838
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 999,578,281,429,163 is 3782015360838.
