Given numbers are 242,596,592,434

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

The LCM of 242,596,592,434 is 2316077456.

Find LCM of 242,596,592,434 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 121 x 149 x 148 x 217 = 2316077456

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 242,596,592,434 is 2316077456.

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 596 x 592 x 434 = 37057239296

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

596 : 1, 2, 4, 149, 298, 596

592 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 37, 74, 148, 296, 592

434 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 31, 62, 217, 434

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 242,596,592,434, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

242:2x 11x 11

596:2x 2x 149

592:2x 2x 2x 2x 37

434:2x 7x 31

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 2 = 8

Therefore, the value for common factors is 8.

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 = 37057239296/(2x8)

LCM = 37057239296/16

LCM = 2316077456

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 242,596,592,434 is 2316077456.
