LCM of decimals calculator gives the LCM of Decimal numbers given 0.9, 0.5, 0.2, 0.456 i.e. 171 the smallest number that divides all of them exactly.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 0.9, 0.5, 0.2, 0.456 is 171.
LCM(0.9, 0.5, 0.2, 0.456) = 171
LCM of 0.9, 0.5, 0.2, 0.456
Enter two or more decimals separated by "commas"
Ex: 0.2, 0.3 or 0.4, 0.5, 0.6
Given numbers are 0.9,0.5,0.2,0.456. 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
0.9 x 1000 = 900
0.5 x 1000 = 500
0.2 x 1000 = 200
0.456 x 1000 = 456
On finding the LCM of 900,500,200,456 we get the Least Common Multiple as 171000
Least Common Multiple 0.9,0.5,0.2,0.456 is 171
| 2 | 900, 500, 200, 456 |
| 2 | 450, 250, 100, 228 |
| 2 | 225, 125, 50, 114 |
| 3 | 225, 125, 25, 57 |
| 5 | 75, 125, 25, 19 |
| 5 | 15, 5, 25, 19 |
| 3, 1, 5, 19 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 x 5 x 3 x 1 x 5 x 19 = 171000
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 171000/1000 we get 171
Thus the Least Common Multiple of 0.9,0.5,0.2,0.456 is 171
Least Common Multiple of 900,500,200,456 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 900,500,200,456 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(900,500,200,456) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 60000
GCF(900,500,200,456) x common factors =4 x 60000 = 240000
LCM(900,500,200,456) = ( 900 × 500 × 200 × 456 ) / 240000
LCM(900,500,200,456) = 41040000000 / 240000
LCM(900,500,200,456) = 171000
