Given numbers are 242,968,912,253

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

The LCM of 242,968,912,253 is 2538096.

Find LCM of 242,968,912,253 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 2 x 2 x 11 x 11 x 1 x 1 x 114 x 23 = 2538096

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 242,968,912,253 is 2538096.

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 968 x 912 x 253 = 54051292416

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

968 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 11, 22, 44, 88, 121, 242, 484, 968

912 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 19, 24, 38, 48, 57, 76, 114, 152, 228, 304, 456, 912

253 : 1, 11, 23, 253

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 242,968,912,253, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

242:2x 11x 11

968:2x 2x 2x 11x 11

912:2x 2x 2x 2x 3x 19

253:11x 23

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 11x 11x 11 = 21296

Therefore, the value for common factors is 21296.

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 = 54051292416/(1x21296)

LCM = 54051292416/21296

LCM = 2538096

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 242,968,912,253 is 2538096.
