Given numbers are 242,893,271,974

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

The LCM of 242,893,271,974 is 28521021562.

Find LCM of 242,893,271,974 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 121 x 893 x 271 x 487 = 28521021562

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 242,893,271,974 is 28521021562.

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 893 x 271 x 974 = 57042043124

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

893 : 1, 19, 47, 893

271 : 1, 271

974 : 1, 2, 487, 974

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 242,893,271,974, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

242:2x 11x 11

893:19x 47

271:271

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.

2 = 2

Therefore, the value for common factors is 2.

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 = 57042043124/(1x2)

LCM = 57042043124/2

LCM = 28521021562

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 242,893,271,974 is 28521021562.
