Given numbers are 242,164,968,466,997

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

The LCM of 242,164,968,466,997 is 9219562088.

Find LCM of 242,164,968,466,997 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 11 x 11 x 1 x 41 x 2 x 233 x 997 = 9219562088

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 242,164,968,466,997 is 9219562088.

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.

242 x 164 x 968 x 466 x 997 = 17849072202368

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.

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

164 : 1, 2, 4, 41, 82, 164

968 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 11, 22, 44, 88, 121, 242, 484, 968

466 : 1, 2, 233, 466

997 : 1, 997

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 242,164,968,466,997, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

242:2x 11x 11

164:2x 2x 41

968:2x 2x 2x 11x 11

466:2x 233

997:997

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 2x 11x 11 = 1936

Therefore, the value for common factors is 1936.

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 = 17849072202368/(1x1936)

LCM = 17849072202368/1936

LCM = 9219562088

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 242,164,968,466,997 is 9219562088.
