Lets's calculate LCM of 42,28,438,352

2 42, 28, 438, 352
2 21, 14, 219, 176
3 21, 7, 219, 88
7 7, 7, 73, 88
1, 1, 73, 88

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 7 x 1 x 1 x 73 x 88 = 539616

Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/539616

Least Common Multiple of 42,28,438,352 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 42,28,438,352 with GCF Formula

The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).

We need to calculate greatest common factor of 42,28,438,352 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(42,28,438,352) = 2

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 168

GCF(42,28,438,352) x common factors =2 x 168 = 336

LCM(42,28,438,352) = ( 42 × 28 × 438 × 352 ) / 336

LCM(42,28,438,352) = 181310976 / 336

LCM(42,28,438,352) = 539616
