Given numbers are 162,771,996,966,242

The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.

The LCM of 162,771,996,966,242 is 134637944364.

Find LCM of 162,771,996,966,242 with Prime Factorization

Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.

2 x 3 x 27 x 257 x 166 x 161 x 121 = 134637944364

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 162,771,996,966,242 is 134637944364.

LCM formula is LCM(a1, a2, an) = (a1 x a2 x an)/{GCF(a1 x a2 x an) x common factors}

Firstly, we have to find the product of all the numbers.

162 x 771 x 996 x 966 x 242 = 29081795982624

Then, let us find the GCF of these five numbers. To do so, we have to list down the factors for each number and choose the highest factor that is in all of the lists.

162 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 27, 54, 81, 162

771 : 1, 3, 257, 771

996 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 83, 166, 249, 332, 498, 996

966 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21, 23, 42, 46, 69, 138, 161, 322, 483, 966

242 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 121, 242

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 162,771,996,966,242, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

162:2x 3x 3x 3x 3

771:3x 257

996:2x 2x 3x 83

966:2x 3x 7x 23

242:2x 11x 11

From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.

2x 2x 2x 3x 3x 3 = 216

Therefore, the value for common factors is 216.

Now that we have all the elements of the formula, we can plug them in to calculate the LCM.

LCM(a1, a2, an) = (a1 x a2 x an)/{GCF(a1 x a2 x an) x common factors}

LCM = 29081795982624/(1x216)

LCM = 29081795982624/216

LCM = 134637944364

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 162,771,996,966,242 is 134637944364.
