Given numbers are 242,493,957,129
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 242,493,957,129 is 15390474.
Find LCM of 242,493,957,129 with Prime Factorization
| 3 | 242, 493, 957, 129 |
| 11 | 242, 493, 319, 43 |
| 29 | 22, 493, 29, 43 |
| 22, 17, 1, 43 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
3 x 11 x 29 x 22 x 17 x 1 x 43 = 15390474
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 242,493,957,129 is 15390474.
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 493 x 957 x 129 = 14728683618
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
493 : 1, 17, 29, 493
957 : 1, 3, 11, 29, 33, 87, 319, 957
129 : 1, 3, 43, 129
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 242,493,957,129, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
242:2x 11x 11
493:17x 29
957:3x 11x 29
129:3x 43
From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.
3x 11x 29 = 957
Therefore, the value for common factors is 957.
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 = 14728683618/(1x957)
LCM = 14728683618/957
LCM = 15390474
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 242,493,957,129 is 15390474.
