Given numbers are 242,756,618,974

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

The LCM of 242,756,618,974 is 4588527636.

Find LCM of 242,756,618,974 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3 x 121 x 126 x 103 x 487 = 4588527636

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 242,756,618,974 is 4588527636.

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 756 x 618 x 974 = 110124663264

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

756 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 9, 12, 14, 18, 21, 27, 28, 36, 42, 54, 63, 84, 108, 126, 189, 252, 378, 756

618 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 103, 206, 309, 618

974 : 1, 2, 487, 974

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 242,756,618,974, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

242:2x 11x 11

756:2x 2x 3x 3x 3x 7

618:2x 3x 103

974:2x 487

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 3 = 12

Therefore, the value for common factors is 12.

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 = 110124663264/(2x12)

LCM = 110124663264/24

LCM = 4588527636

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 242,756,618,974 is 4588527636.
