Calculate the LCM of 242,637,468,21

Given numbers are 242,637,468,21

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

The LCM of 242,637,468,21 is 2774772.

Find LCM of 242,637,468,21 with Prime Factorization


2 242, 637, 468, 21
3 121, 637, 234, 21
7 121, 637, 78, 7
13 121, 91, 78, 1
121, 7, 6, 1

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

2 x 3 x 7 x 13 x 121 x 7 x 6 x 1 = 2774772

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 242,637,468,21 is 2774772.

LCM Formula to Find Lowest Common Multiple of 242,637,468,21

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 637 x 468 x 21 = 1515025512

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

637 : 1, 7, 13, 49, 91, 637

468 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 13, 18, 26, 36, 39, 52, 78, 117, 156, 234, 468

21 : 1, 3, 7, 21

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 242,637,468,21, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

242:2x 11x 11

637:7x 7x 13

468:2x 2x 3x 3x 13

21:3x 7

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

2x 3x 7x 13 = 546

Therefore, the value for common factors is 546.

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 = 1515025512/(1x546)

LCM = 1515025512/546

LCM = 2774772

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 242,637,468,21 is 2774772.
