Given numbers are 242,880,424,304,427

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

The LCM of 242,880,424,304,427 is 4162293520.

Find LCM of 242,880,424,304,427 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 11 x 11 x 5 x 53 x 19 x 427 = 4162293520

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 242,880,424,304,427 is 4162293520.

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 880 x 424 x 304 x 427 = 11721018552320

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

880 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 11, 16, 20, 22, 40, 44, 55, 80, 88, 110, 176, 220, 440, 880

424 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 53, 106, 212, 424

304 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 19, 38, 76, 152, 304

427 : 1, 7, 61, 427

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 242,880,424,304,427, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

242:2x 11x 11

880:2x 2x 2x 2x 5x 11

424:2x 2x 2x 53

304:2x 2x 2x 2x 19

427:7x 61

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 2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 2x 11 = 2816

Therefore, the value for common factors is 2816.

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 = 11721018552320/(1x2816)

LCM = 11721018552320/2816

LCM = 4162293520

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 242,880,424,304,427 is 4162293520.
