Lets's calculate LCM of 61,524

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 31964

Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 243/31964

Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 243/61,486/524 is 243/31964

Least Common Multiple of 61,524 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 61,524 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 61,524 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(61,524) = 1

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1

GCF(61,524) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(61,524) = ( 61 × 524 ) / 1

LCM(61,524) = 31964 / 1

LCM(61,524) = 31964
