Given numbers are 242,816,234,962

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

The LCM of 242,816,234,962 is 142476048.

Find LCM of 242,816,234,962 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3 x 13 x 121 x 136 x 3 x 37 = 142476048

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 242,816,234,962 is 142476048.

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 816 x 234 x 962 = 44452526976

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

816 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 17, 24, 34, 48, 51, 68, 102, 136, 204, 272, 408, 816

234 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 13, 18, 26, 39, 78, 117, 234

962 : 1, 2, 13, 26, 37, 74, 481, 962

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 242,816,234,962, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

242:2x 11x 11

816:2x 2x 2x 2x 3x 17

234:2x 3x 3x 13

962:2x 13x 37

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 3x 13 = 156

Therefore, the value for common factors is 156.

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 = 44452526976/(2x156)

LCM = 44452526976/312

LCM = 142476048

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 242,816,234,962 is 142476048.
