Lets's calculate LCM of 19,42,169,532

2 19, 42, 169, 532
7 19, 21, 169, 266
19 19, 3, 169, 38
1, 3, 169, 2

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 7 x 19 x 1 x 3 x 169 x 2 = 269724

Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/269724

Least Common Multiple of 19,42,169,532 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 19,42,169,532 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 19,42,169,532 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(19,42,169,532) = 1

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 266

GCF(19,42,169,532) x common factors =1 x 266 = 266

LCM(19,42,169,532) = ( 19 × 42 × 169 × 532 ) / 266

LCM(19,42,169,532) = 71746584 / 266

LCM(19,42,169,532) = 269724
