LCM of decimals calculator gives the LCM of Decimal numbers given 0.5, 0.3, 0.8, 0.432 i.e. 108 the smallest number that divides all of them exactly.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 0.5, 0.3, 0.8, 0.432 is 108.
LCM(0.5, 0.3, 0.8, 0.432) = 108
LCM of 0.5, 0.3, 0.8, 0.432
Enter two or more decimals separated by "commas"
Ex: 0.2, 0.3 or 0.4, 0.5, 0.6
Given numbers are 0.5,0.3,0.8,0.432. 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
0.3 x 1000 = 300
0.8 x 1000 = 800
0.432 x 1000 = 432
On finding the LCM of 500,300,800,432 we get the Least Common Multiple as 108000
Least Common Multiple 0.5,0.3,0.8,0.432 is 108
| 2 | 500, 300, 800, 432 |
| 2 | 250, 150, 400, 216 |
| 2 | 125, 75, 200, 108 |
| 2 | 125, 75, 100, 54 |
| 3 | 125, 75, 50, 27 |
| 5 | 125, 25, 50, 9 |
| 5 | 5, 25, 10, 9 |
| 1, 5, 2, 9 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 x 5 x 1 x 5 x 2 x 9 = 108000
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 108000/1000 we get 108
Thus the Least Common Multiple of 0.5,0.3,0.8,0.432 is 108
Least Common Multiple of 500,300,800,432 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 500,300,800,432 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(500,300,800,432) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 120000
GCF(500,300,800,432) x common factors =4 x 120000 = 480000
LCM(500,300,800,432) = ( 500 × 300 × 800 × 432 ) / 480000
LCM(500,300,800,432) = 51840000000 / 480000
LCM(500,300,800,432) = 108000
