Sponsors
The instructions to find the LCM of 31, 46, 86 and 93 are the next:
1. Decompose all numbers into prime factors
31 | 31 |
1 |
46 | 2 |
23 | 23 |
1 |
86 | 2 |
43 | 43 |
1 |
93 | 3 |
31 | 31 |
1 |
2. Write all numbers as the product of its prime factors
Prime factors of 31 | = | 31 |
Prime factors of 46 | = | 2 . 23 |
Prime factors of 86 | = | 2 . 43 |
Prime factors of 93 | = | 3 . 31 |
3. Choose the common and uncommon prime factors with the greatest exponent
Common prime factors: None
Common prime factors with the greatest exponent: None
Uncommon prime factors: 31 , 2 , 23 , 43 , 3
Uncommon prime factors with the greatest exponent: 311, 21, 231, 431, 31
4. Calculate the Least Common Multiple or LCM
Remember, to find the LCM of several numbers you must multiply the common and uncommon prime factors with the greatest exponent of those numbers.
LCM = 311. 21. 231. 431. 31 = 183954
