Given numbers are 958,862,592,242

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

The LCM of 958,862,592,242 is 14788354768.

Find LCM of 958,862,592,242 with Prime Factorization

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

2 x 479 x 431 x 296 x 121 = 14788354768

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 958,862,592,242 is 14788354768.

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.

958 x 862 x 592 x 242 = 118306838144

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.

958 : 1, 2, 479, 958

862 : 1, 2, 431, 862

592 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 37, 74, 148, 296, 592

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

2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 958,862,592,242, is 2.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

958:2x 479

862:2x 431

592:2x 2x 2x 2x 37

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 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 = 118306838144/(2x4)

LCM = 118306838144/8

LCM = 14788354768

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 958,862,592,242 is 14788354768.
