Given numbers are 242,634,158,412

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

The LCM of 242,634,158,412 is 1248443636.

Find LCM of 242,634,158,412 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 121 x 317 x 79 x 206 = 1248443636

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 242,634,158,412 is 1248443636.

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 634 x 158 x 412 = 9987549088

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

634 : 1, 2, 317, 634

158 : 1, 2, 79, 158

412 : 1, 2, 4, 103, 206, 412

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 242,634,158,412, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

242:2x 11x 11

634:2x 317

158:2x 79

412:2x 2x 103

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

2x 2 = 4

Therefore, the value for common factors is 4.

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 = 9987549088/(2x4)

LCM = 9987549088/8

LCM = 1248443636

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 242,634,158,412 is 1248443636.
