Given numbers are 642,486,241,232

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

The LCM of 642,486,241,232 is 1453767912.

Find LCM of 642,486,241,232 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 3 x 107 x 81 x 241 x 116 = 1453767912

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 642,486,241,232 is 1453767912.

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.

642 x 486 x 241 x 232 = 17445214944

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.

642 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 107, 214, 321, 642

486 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 27, 54, 81, 162, 243, 486

241 : 1, 241

232 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 29, 58, 116, 232

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 642,486,241,232, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

642:2x 3x 107

486:2x 3x 3x 3x 3x 3

241:241

232:2x 2x 2x 29

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 3 = 12

Therefore, the value for common factors is 12.

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 = 17445214944/(1x12)

LCM = 17445214944/12

LCM = 1453767912

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 642,486,241,232 is 1453767912.
