Use the LCM of two or more numbers Calculator to find the Least Common Multiple of numbers 972, 234, 572 i.e. 138996 smallest integer divisible by all numbers.
Least common multiple (LCM) of 972, 234, 572 is 138996.
LCM(972, 234, 572) = 138996
Least common multiple or lowest common denominator (lcd) can be calculated in three ways
2 | 972, 234, 572 |
2 | 486, 117, 286 |
3 | 243, 117, 143 |
3 | 81, 39, 143 |
13 | 27, 13, 143 |
27, 1, 11 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 13 x 27 x 1 x 11 = 138996
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 972,234,572 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(972,234,572) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 468
GCF(972,234,572) x common factors =2 x 468 = 936
LCM(972,234,572) = ( 972 × 234 × 572 ) / 936
LCM(972,234,572) = 130100256 / 936
LCM(972,234,572) = 138996
∴ Least Common Multiple of 972,234,572 is 138996
