Given numbers are 248,566,242,885

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

The LCM of 248,566,242,885 is 7515653640.

Find LCM of 248,566,242,885 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 124 x 283 x 121 x 885 = 7515653640

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 248,566,242,885 is 7515653640.

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.

248 x 566 x 242 x 885 = 30062614560

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.

248 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 31, 62, 124, 248

566 : 1, 2, 283, 566

242 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 121, 242

885 : 1, 3, 5, 15, 59, 177, 295, 885

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 248,566,242,885, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

248:2x 2x 2x 31

566:2x 283

242:2x 11x 11

885:3x 5x 59

From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.

2x 2 = 4

Therefore, the value for common factors is 4.

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 = 30062614560/(1x4)

LCM = 30062614560/4

LCM = 7515653640

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 248,566,242,885 is 7515653640.
