Given numbers are 242,637,658,431

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

The LCM of 242,637,658,431 is 3122697578.

Find LCM of 242,637,658,431 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 7 x 121 x 91 x 47 x 431 = 3122697578

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 242,637,658,431 is 3122697578.

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 658 x 431 = 43717766092

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

658 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 47, 94, 329, 658

431 : 1, 431

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 242,637,658,431, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

242:2x 11x 11

637:7x 7x 13

658:2x 7x 47

431:431

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

2x 7 = 14

Therefore, the value for common factors is 14.

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 = 43717766092/(1x14)

LCM = 43717766092/14

LCM = 3122697578

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 242,637,658,431 is 3122697578.
