LCM of decimals calculator gives the LCM of Decimal numbers given 0.5, 0.2, 0.78, 0.956 i.e. 9321 the smallest number that divides all of them exactly.

Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 0.5, 0.2, 0.78, 0.956 is 9321.

LCM(0.5, 0.2, 0.78, 0.956) = 9321

LCM of 0.5, 0.2, 0.78, 0.956

Enter two or more decimals separated by "commas"

Ex: 0.2, 0.3 or 0.4, 0.5, 0.6

LCM of:

Least Common Multiple of 0.5, 0.2, 0.78, 0.956

Given numbers are 0.5,0.2,0.78,0.956. The highest number of digits after the decimal point in the given case is 3

Thus, in order to get rid of the decimal point we need to multiply them with 1000. On doing so, they are as follows

0.5 x 1000 = 500

0.2 x 1000 = 200

0.78 x 1000 = 780

0.956 x 1000 = 956

On finding the LCM of 500,200,780,956 we get the Least Common Multiple as 9321000

Least Common Multiple 0.5,0.2,0.78,0.956 is 9321

2 500, 200, 780, 956
2 250, 100, 390, 478
5 125, 50, 195, 239
5 25, 10, 39, 239
5, 2, 39, 239

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 5 x 5 x 5 x 2 x 39 x 239 = 9321000

Divide the result you got with the number you multiplied to make it as integer in the first step. In this case, we need to divide by 1000 as we used it to make the given numbers into integers.

On dividing the LCM 9321000/1000 we get 9321

Thus the Least Common Multiple of 0.5,0.2,0.78,0.956 is 9321

Least Common Multiple of 500,200,780,956 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 500,200,780,956 with GCF Formula

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 500,200,780,956 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(500,200,780,956) = 4

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2000

GCF(500,200,780,956) x common factors =4 x 2000 = 8000

LCM(500,200,780,956) = ( 500 × 200 × 780 × 956 ) / 8000

LCM(500,200,780,956) = 74568000000 / 8000

LCM(500,200,780,956) = 9321000
