Given numbers are 252,839,305,242,242

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

The LCM of 252,839,305,242,242 is 7802750340.

Find LCM of 252,839,305,242,242 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 11 x 11 x 126 x 839 x 305 x 1 x 1 = 7802750340

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 252,839,305,242,242 is 7802750340.

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.

252 x 839 x 305 x 242 x 242 = 3776531164560

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.

252 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 9, 12, 14, 18, 21, 28, 36, 42, 63, 84, 126, 252

839 : 1, 839

305 : 1, 5, 61, 305

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

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

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 252,839,305,242,242, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

252:2x 2x 3x 3x 7

839:839

305:5x 61

242:2x 11x 11

242:2x 11x 11

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 11x 11 = 484

Therefore, the value for common factors is 484.

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 = 3776531164560/(1x484)

LCM = 3776531164560/484

LCM = 7802750340

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 252,839,305,242,242 is 7802750340.
