Given numbers are 242,637,506,402,952

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

The LCM of 242,637,506,402,952 is 48460468056.

Find LCM of 242,637,506,402,952 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 7 x 11 x 11 x 91 x 23 x 201 x 68 = 48460468056

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 242,637,506,402,952 is 48460468056.

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 506 x 402 x 952 = 29851648322496

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

506 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 23, 46, 253, 506

402 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 67, 134, 201, 402

952 : 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 17, 28, 34, 56, 68, 119, 136, 238, 476, 952

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 242,637,506,402,952, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

242:2x 11x 11

637:7x 7x 13

506:2x 11x 23

402:2x 3x 67

952:2x 2x 2x 7x 17

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 7x 11 = 616

Therefore, the value for common factors is 616.

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 = 29851648322496/(1x616)

LCM = 29851648322496/616

LCM = 48460468056

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 242,637,506,402,952 is 48460468056.
