Given numbers are 242,749,642,701

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

The LCM of 242,749,642,701 is 381185574.

Find LCM of 242,749,642,701 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 107 x 121 x 7 x 3 x 701 = 381185574

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 242,749,642,701 is 381185574.

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 749 x 642 x 701 = 81573712836

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

749 : 1, 7, 107, 749

642 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 107, 214, 321, 642

701 : 1, 701

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 242,749,642,701, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

242:2x 11x 11

749:7x 107

642:2x 3x 107

701:701

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

2x 107 = 214

Therefore, the value for common factors is 214.

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 = 81573712836/(1x214)

LCM = 81573712836/214

LCM = 381185574

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 242,749,642,701 is 381185574.
