Given numbers are 242,859,342,627
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 242,859,342,627 is 35547138.
Find LCM of 242,859,342,627 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 242, 859, 342, 627 |
| 3 | 121, 859, 171, 627 |
| 11 | 121, 859, 57, 209 |
| 19 | 11, 859, 57, 19 |
| 11, 859, 3, 1 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 3 x 11 x 19 x 11 x 859 x 3 x 1 = 35547138
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 242,859,342,627 is 35547138.
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 859 x 342 x 627 = 44576111052
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
859 : 1, 859
342 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 19, 38, 57, 114, 171, 342
627 : 1, 3, 11, 19, 33, 57, 209, 627
1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 242,859,342,627, is 1.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
242:2x 11x 11
859:859
342:2x 3x 3x 19
627:3x 11x 19
From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.
2x 3x 11x 19 = 1254
Therefore, the value for common factors is 1254.
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 = 44576111052/(1x1254)
LCM = 44576111052/1254
LCM = 35547138
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 242,859,342,627 is 35547138.
