Given numbers are 249,212,482,742

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

The LCM of 249,212,482,742 is 89053356.

Find LCM of 249,212,482,742 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 53 x 249 x 2 x 241 x 7 = 89053356

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 249,212,482,742 is 89053356.

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.

249 x 212 x 482 x 742 = 18879311472

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.

249 : 1, 3, 83, 249

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

482 : 1, 2, 241, 482

742 : 1, 2, 7, 14, 53, 106, 371, 742

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 249,212,482,742, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

249:3x 83

212:2x 2x 53

482:2x 241

742:2x 7x 53

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 53 = 212

Therefore, the value for common factors is 212.

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 = 18879311472/(1x212)

LCM = 18879311472/212

LCM = 89053356

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 249,212,482,742 is 89053356.
